Quite detailed and very intuitive. Speaking of mmedia, I visited the new AMNH Lila B. Acheson Hall of Mammals and their Extinct Relatives today. It was marvelous, particularly the numerous interactive/mmedia kiosks that interspersed the exhibits. In my opinion, it is one of the most successful integrations of mmedia technology and collections-oriented tradition I have seen. Any other opinions? vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv Craig M.
