I have NEVER saw a stone that CAN'T be repaired. As the Marines say, The Impossible just takes a Little Longer. He looked at the stones as junk, You look at them as a challenge. What he saw as unsalvageable, to you it is to repair a piece of our history. He was never taught to try and save something like that. His education was not complete. Ask if he would like to stake his Reputation on them being beyond repair. Are they Piles of Dust? I thought they were taught to reconstruct the past, not belittle the very things that represent it.
