Rich,
Didn't Debbie R manage to set up a museum in your neck of the woods for a
few years, before it went bust? Unfortunately, the 1st time I went to Vegas
the museum didn't exist yet, and by the 2nd time it had closed down. Just
my luck. (Makes me wonder how the Liberace museum managed to last so long
tho.) I too am amazed at how often Hollywood neglects its own history. But I
guess it's a similar story around the world, with a few notable exceptions
like Scorcese's preservation efforts and that German film museum
initiative that Cory forwarded the other day.

Irv.. the mistake that corporations make in this case is that they could
sponsor the museum, lose money or whatever & get both promotional value &
good karma. seeing as they aren't interested in the Karma, and too many
corporations are run by people too young to be familiar with the material,
it's
a dead end..
