An amen to Jim Angus' note about the lighter side. My vocation involves conveying the significance and value of cultural resources to the public. I'm also helping them understand what curators, archeologists, conserva tors and other CRM folks do (and why), in part so they will keep paying admission fees an d taxes to keep these folks usefully employed. Anecdotes go a long way toward introducing the human element that aids understanding and appreciation...an element that's often impossible to find in the professionally sanctioned literature of the CRM discip lines. So, while I learn from the technical discourse, too, let's keep a dollop of huma nity on the list.
