   Well, I’m 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 don’t get much better, well done.

It doesn’t. 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.
