Leslie or any other List Member:

I am a volunteer for a small historical museum in Washington State and as
Julie, I would like to develop an interpreter's manual.  As of now, we do
not have a copy to use as a reference for our own development.  I appreciate
your generosity to share your own.  Could we be also a recipient of one? I
would be very happy to pay for any expenses you may incur.
