This is an inquiry from a friend at The Science Museum in London.  She is
interested in exploring any "alternative" forms of tackling controversial or
ethical issues in museums.

Does anyone know of a mining exhibition in Vancouver (maybe) which has a "make a
choice and see the consequences" kind of room at the end, which uses dramatic
characters?

We've heard of an exhibition that looks at ethical quandries raised by genetics,
possibly in the form of a maze, that is or has been at OMSI or that area of the
world.  There is no trace of it on OMSI's home page.  Anyone know of it?

Thanks for any help on this.
