Yes it is a beautiful day here.. re: <<right now would be to give people a better idea about Iraq>>> And that was one of the first things that crossed my mind. And I thought about it .. I seen it last night first. But I came to the conclusion the bad far outweighed the good, IMO. Why?, It appears to me, that we care more about their valuable old stuff than them, as a people, a culture, etc. On the second thought, we probably do. We act like we do, IMO.. So I guess we might as well show it.. Less hypocritical that way.. <ng> I am not sure that people in the museum biz, collectors and the like, are more liberal in general.. Because, IMO, they tend to be oriented towards the "materialistic".. valuable old "gold stuff".. <g>.. Plunderers.. <g>.. Now teachers, librarians and the like are a completely different story... They are passing on the intangible, the most valuable of all.. Here's to Teachers! :) M
