When I was there, approx. 90% of Plimoth Plantation's operating
budget came from income earned directly from the visitor.  I don't know
what the profile is now, but it can't be much different.  I might mention
that some of us felt that this proportion was not altogether a good thing,
particularly when tourism in Massachusetts tanked for several years.
