Dear John Arnold: Perhaps the problem is with the title of your proposed talk. State museum associations, by definition, are created to serve primarily the museums that are members of them. By doing so, they indirectly serve the public by providing a forum for the exchange of information that will help their member museums improve their standards of operation. The public is the ultimate beneficiary, but it is the member museums that receive the most direct benefits. If the title of the presentation was something like 'How New Mexico's Museums Can Better Serve the Public' this relationship might become clearer. Good luck with your talk! Lonn Taylor, National Museum of American History and a former member of the New Mexico Museums Association.

Hey Lonn: Thanks for your comments. Actually, the monuments are members of the Association, even though none of the rangers is (at least I don't think they are). Also, I never stay completely with the topic, kind of preferring to shoot from the lip. But I thought someone out there might have some ideas I could incorporate.

And, hey, send me your mailing address, and I'll send you an NMAM memberhsip application... we accept Texans!
