Thank you all for these great quotes.  They'll be on the virtual wall  
soon!

We'll be launching The Tech's Second Life presence December 5--and  
I'll be sure to let ASTC know about it!  We're using Second Life less  
as a public installation than as a way for museum professionals to  
collaborate, prototype, and talk about museum exhibit design in a  
virtual forum.  We'll be offering lots of classes and programming.  I  
hope many of you will join in when we open.

Be well,
Nina
