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

Rebecaa: I like the form you have chosen, but  I don't understand  
'Retrieved' in this context.  If it refers to a personal visit, and  
not to an online resource, wouldn't it fit better with the notion of  
'unretreivable data,' as in a personal interview, phone call, etc?
