People want to spend their money on the Unabomber's stuff
Ted Kaczynski's belongings are on the block
A slew of Unabomber Ted Kaczynski's belongings are being auctioned (online) from a federal office building in Midtown, which means you too can look like pervert Weird Al:
No, but, seriously, among the 58 lots available is one that includes a few pairs of aviator-style sunglasses and a grey hoodie, presumably the exact items he was wearing when he was spotted in Salt Lake City in 1987 (that sighting resulted in the famous composite sketch). There's also a bunch of handwritten documents, a typewriter, books, letters, pictures, clothes — all things people want to own for one reason or another. A handwritten copy of his manifesto is already going for $10,050, and the bidding just started today.
A good thing: the money goes to Kaczynski's victims.
