According to ABC, "Committee vice chairman Aaron Thomas said 100 cryogenic cylinders of cattle semen were destroyed in the fire." 'The actual cylinders are worth between $500 and $1,000 per unit but the semen inside them varies in price,' he said."

No doubt they think it's priceless.

The possible analysis of the symbolism here holds an embarrassment of riches.

No bull.
