Over the past couple of years I have tried to respond to various
comments by 
others - sometimes a bit tongue in cheek - like suggesting we needed
elastic 
walls for growing collections & display needs (& of course there are 
actually wall systems that do this).
 
And  my comment yesterday originally was blocked.
 
My point is that even though I feel swamped by the ever-growing demands
of 
"paperwork" - reporting etc, it is great to have a "conversation" with 
colleagues in a wide variety of museums across the country (including
the 
doily and machinery ones!). I like to see those queries, (& will follow
this 
with one of my own) but a little chatter is good too. It's human.

	If the list is meant to foster all manner of discussion on
issues, theory
	and practice relating to collections, and should not just be a
forum for
	exchanging useful information, is it worth asking what it was
about 
	Merle's
	posts that was deemed inappropriate? What were they about?
	 
	cheers
