I've been subscribed to this list for a couple of years and have found much
of the discussion to be of use to me in my small capacity at our small
museum. Recently, though, I've been wondering something while reading the
threads about the Iraqi Museum.

Given the vehement anti-American bias in many of the list's more vocal
members, I wonder if your biases are applied professionally. In other
words, do you endeavor to spin your museum exhibits to reflect as
unfavorably upon America as you do your messages to other museum professionals?

If so, do you wonder if attendance suffers because of it? Or do you
consider it your duty, as properly educated members of society, to
indoctrinate your visitors to your way of thinking?

Sincerely,

Doug Brewer
Curator
Irvinton House Museum
