I recently went to the Smithsonian 150 year thing that was being
transported around the US (it was in Kansas City at the time) and noticed
that although there was text, no one seemed to be interested in it.  I
attributed this to the fact that the majority of the visitors had their
little Apple Newton audio tricorder strapped to their head and everytime
they saw a number that indicated there was something to turn on and listed
to, they did and nothing else was important.  (sounds bitter, I know, but
there were too many people in the exibit and I wanted to read things.
Read?  what's that?  *grin*)

My $1.50
