Is there any real advantage to having this be live, or have you reached the
point where the goals would be better served by an archive of video
clips/podcasts that could be accessed at a kiosk according to the specific
fields of interest of the visitor?  I can imagine that the live piece might
be a draw in and of itself, but I don't have enough experience with visitors
to have a sense of whether that is true.
