Prince Charles on Sinaiticus
Probably everyone knew this already, except for me, and it probably isn't new news, but just in case it is, I observe that (der) Spiegel (translated here) records that HRH Prince Charles (son of Queen Elizabeth, currently in the USA) wants Sinaiticus returned to Egypt. Prince Charles is also chairman of the St Catherine's Foundation.
Charles had better watch out. There may now be a group of British NT scholars who would like to see a certain royal family returned to its own homeland -- Germany!
