edit

  1. Sadads (talk) 11:18, 18 June 2010 (UTC) - Alex Stinson[reply]
  2. Kumioko (talk) 11:22, 18 June 2010 (UTC) - Reese Langlois Definately interested but I wonder if we will be somewhat rushed going from the A&S museum to this one.[reply]
    Well, we won't be able to get contact with the A&S museum staff because its the Weekend, so the tour will be by a docent. The American Indian staff looks forward to some form of collaboration, so we really ought to go. Right now we are running on our 2 SI contacts' coordination for these. We are letting the two of them figure it out. Sadads (talk) 11:39, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    Fair enought thanks for the clarification. --Kumioko (talk) 12:58, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
