Actually, I consulted in Florida in person and on the phone, from California,
where I live. This was during concept development a long time ago, and
clearly, I have never been there and you have.  Sorry -  the sharpness of
your reproof tells me how touchy this is - that I got the city name wrong.
 I'm interested that you feel that the connection between the inventor's and
the processes is not clear.  The push-pull of interactive exhibitions in a
hall of fame was clear from the beginning, and I am eager to see how it came
out.  I'll remember to go to *Akron*.

Apparently you consulted from Florida by phone...the National Inventors Hall
of Fame is in Akron, not Canton. It's main floor is a very
Exploratorium-like hands-on area, with balconies overlooking it that contain
more traditional exhibits about the members of the Hall of Fame. Very
popular with school groups, though I wish it made more direct connections
between the inventors and the hands-on exhibits.
