While you're in Johnstown, drive out to the location of the dam that broke and caused the flood; it's a National Park Service site, and there's a whole other museum and film to see there. The neighborhood at the top of the incline is nice to walk around as well. They are quite proud of their mile-long line of elm trees that have been carefully protected against Dutch elm disease. > We then drove out to >"Falling Waters", the Frank L.

Agreed--but it's "Fallingwater", not "Falling Waters". -- Ron Newman MIT Media Laboratory rnewman@media.mit.edu
