But that one, I think the last of the pieces involved in my case, was only repatriated I think it's within the past year and a half. There was a ceremony at the Library of Congress in which Immigrations and Customs Enforcement repatriated that skull along with several other pieces. And so it's just one of those things where... No, I'm just going to stop you there.

I suppose that's right. I have my Mongolian Presidential Medal of Friendship hanging in my office on a little sort of custom frame that I got done at Michael's. I think to myself, well, there it is, exactly as I'd planned it. And I want to make a couple of things clear relatively early on rather than face the wrath of Nicolas Cage and his attorneys.

Ah, I have an answer. Mongolia ultimately repurposed an old Soviet-era office building in its capital, Ulaanbaatar, and the Baatar, Baatar bit is real, and turned it into a dinosaur museum and a major tourist attraction in Mongolia, largely based just on the haul that they got from this case.

They've got dramatic lighting. And it's just this thing that exists halfway across the world now, in part because of the work that I was lucky enough to be able to participate in with my agency partners and the folks who supervised me at the U.S. Attorney's Office.
