Well, Im a little disappointed. Much of what is said in the article is not
what I said in the interview.

Having worked with a few news outlets local to me and seeing how they can mangle
the most simple facts I think it is a great article. The only negatives would be
the reference to unwashed masses and a lack of a URL for your website. Both
minor points to try to improve for next time and only one can you really do much
about. The bulk of the article is positive, lighthearted and has what I hope is
accurate information for the museum display. They dont get much better, well
done.

It doesnt. Last weekend was the first one being open since the article came
out, and I heard all weekend we were having to explain to people why stuff
mentioned in the article was not actually on display. The public was very
confused.

Ouch! That has got to be disheartening. I hope no one got angry or too upset.

I handled some of those cases Saturday. People were a little
confused, but not angry. I explained that the reporter misunderstood,
and had done the interview before we ever set up the display so he
didn't see it, and they were mollified.
