THat's really a shame. I wonder what on earth possessed them to add an air circulating system to a cave that had already preserved such a treasure without one for thousands of years. Hopefully they have had the sense to remove it.

Hopefully the media attention can help Lascaux. I remember the first time I saw the paintings in photos- they absolutely had an influence on my decision to become an archaeologist.
