At the 2000 Texas Association of Museums Conference in Austin, one of the
luncheon speakers was Richard Garriott.  He is the author and original
designer of the Ultima Series computer games.  Mr. Garriott currently
established ORIGIN Systems, Inc. which designs entertainment software.  He
discussed museums having their own adventure games.  If anyone is serious
about this, you should contact him in Austin, Texas.

You know this got me thinking again.  If we had someone who was good with
Flash (I am just
learning about how to use it) this could really be an online type of
product.  That way there
could be lots of information.

Wow.  Ok, who has a grant we can apply for!
