exactly. now the university and the insurance companies will spend more on lawyers than purported damages just to find out that they are fault for being just as negligent and that the actual value of the samples was only in $10K - $100K range - you can't just claim what you think they were "worth" to you. everybody looses, except the lawyers in this one.
you don't plug cryo-freezer with a tiny valid temp. range into the standard outlet with no UPS, put up a bunch of signs ("please don't unplug") and no monitoring.
sounds like the samples were worth exactly the same value as the contents of that shared fridge at work, which is also apparently a 20 year science project, and uses the exact same security system.
