Building: It is an ex-Locost - it has gone to the IOW!

I've been into the museum that's above that vault... they have a perspex case that you can reach into and actually touch a gold bar - they
invite you to try and pick it up off its rests. The case only has a narrow tube for your arm and it's quite a reach, so your arm is fully
extended when you're holding the bar (needless to say, there's no way to extract the bar!)
Not many people can get it even a few millimetres off the rests...

for a perfesser, he is not very bright "I have never seen so much of any element" .... err, has he never been to the sea side or any large
lake where this is vast amounts of the elements oxygen and hydrogen combined to form water??
(note he did not say any one element.
nice hiar though.
Is there any of that gold left, didn't Gorgo sell it off?
