It's a great museum and the State could save a lot of money by just making some minor updates and repairs to the building. This museum could focus on one of the five C's. The other state historical museums could focus on the other C's. That would encourage people to go to several museums throughout the State.

Supposedly, the centennial museum will be similar to the Marley Center Museum in that it will feature $10 million of high tech interactive displays. Those displays will never change and include few actual historic artifacts, so what would a curator do?<br /><br />According to the contractors questionnaire, the museum will focus on the social issues related to the 5Cs. The Foundation website says there will be just one interactive (sounds permanent) mineral display. So, what would a geologist do?Dickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17717447541461745969noreply@blogger.com
