ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

"Interactive". Now THERE's a word that no longer conveys much useful meaning!

Biologically speaking, if a person is not interacting, the person is dead.

If any exhibit doesn't produce some kind of visitor interaction, it's a
dead exhibit.

Surely we hope visitors will also "interact" with our hands-off, glass-case
exhibits, with our display graphics, with exhibition staff and with each other?
