I have been wondering about our friends in Iowa, and what the rest of us might do. Not unlike Hurricane Katrina, this is an area-wide disaster, and I assume that many museum people are also dealing with their own personal disasters. And since the water has not receded at all, apparently, as of today, I guess it is too soon to descend for recovery. However, it is not too early to plan. Anyone got any ideas? Claudia -- Claudia J.
