FWIW - This happened to me a few years ago at Target. I purchased an electronic shaver, opened it up in the car and noticed that it was a bunch of 'D' cell batteries. After a short discussion, Target took it back.

Solution: simply require either physical inspections of returned merchandise or UPC tracking of returned products. Most stores require positive ID when returning products, so the tracking really shouldn't be that hard.

Why not preserve the memory and the style of the building rather than the structure? By this I mean that we should allow the Navy to tear down the building, but only after requiring any developer (whether it be for business or housing) to erect a new building with the same footprint and style of the building.

This would allow a modern use for the site, while still preserving a piece of history.

Just a thought.
