Eric,

Nobody is the conduit of all things exhibit-wise, including myself,
since there are so many diverging philosophies of what comprises a
"good" exhibit and since there are multiple types of venues to host
exhibits.  This applies for any type of exhibit, be it interactive,
passive, moving, static, multimedia, cheap, expensive, short-term,
long-term, whatever.

What I do know about exhibits, from experience, is some people will
often voice a critical opinion about what's not right and tell you what
you should not do, instead of sharing what you can do.  I've learned
more by ignoring those overly critical opinions and listening to myself
instead.

I just do not think a shared listserve is the best place for an in-depth
conversation to take place...especially since some people on this list
are in the business of selling exhibits.
