To date from my records the RMS Titanic, Inc. has recovered over 5,500 objects from the wreck site, ranging from delicate porcelain dishes to a 17-ton section of the hull. RMS Titanic, Inc. has conducted seven research and recovery expeditions to the Titanic's wreck site in 1987, 1993, 1994, 1996, 1998, 2000 and 2004.

I'm not sure the sight could have afford much more salvaging. At that rate if it was allowed to continue then in that many more years there would be no debrie field.

I personally am against any recovery of items from the sight. We aren't going to learn nothing we don't already know about civilization from any dishes, shoes or eye glasses we don't already know about the 1912 period of shipping & travel.

Just let them rest in their final resting place.
