If you'd like a copy of my paper (approx. 5pp) and/or my annotated=20
bibliography, please email off-list (I'm unsubscribing for my three-week=20
vacation, so I won't get any on-list posts).  I can either e-mail or=20
snail mail you a copy.  I'd love to get feedback from anyone on the list.

I ended up focusing my research on the presentation of American Indian=20
homes as "anthropological" artifacts vs. the "historic" interpretation of=
=20
traditional historic house museums.  This led to a discussion of the=20

anthropological, one historical) address these challenges.

I've included a list of the suggestions people sent to me.
Again thanks, and you all wil be receiving your s'mores when they are=20
back in season.
