I think I was misunderstood...
Yes, offline from here, but I want to set the record
straight that I didn't offer a place in the museum
because I thought you were not cooperating, I realize
that yes there may not be another effective place
and that if there is, because of all you are doing
it may not be possible to place it anywhere but the
museum. And I can take that on and keep it out of
your way. I know your heart is in the right place
but are up against the wall to get East ready to go.
