Hi Mike,

A long time ago (1998) I collected a set of "Bon-Mots" about exhibits for
the Techniquest MSc course and eventually I posted them on the British
Interactive Group's website.
 
<http://www.big.uk.com/knowledgebase/exhibits/aphorisms.htm.>

These were designed to provoke reactions and pad out my feeble lectures with
animated discussions from the students.

Feel free to use them as I gathered them from many people far more
experienced in the business than I was.

Let me know if they are useful as in the intervening years I've gathered
loads more. In fact I'm moving from a pack of cards to a day-by-day
calendar,

Regards,

--
