Dear Carol Mayer, I hope you are not deluged with requests but I would
also be very interested to see what you do for non-English guides. We presently
don't have anything here at the University of Pennsylvania Museum in other
languages so an example might be helpful. My snail address is: Mary Day Kent,
International Classroom, The University of Pennsylvania Museum, 33 and Spruce
STs., Philadelphia, Pa. 19104 (USA). Thanks!>Hi Mark,
