Another thing i noted from the very knowledgeable young, white man yesterday was............that the SI has 19 buildings...........he asked us to guesstimate............i told him 50..............i was way off............i thought that the East and West gallery of art was part of the SI..........but they are not.....................that conversation started b/c a man in the tour asked if the Jewish holocaust museum was part of the SI.............the tour guide said no..............then he went on to say that most people think that the two galleries of art are part of the SI.................but they are not............but the national zoo is..........so again...........do not assume.................pay attention to detail..................they say the devil is in the detail in fashion............i learned that from someone in Virginia's national speakers association...................she was our coach in pro track..........i wanted to be a public speaker............

I took a tour at the SI's castle this morning.............i guess as a plot from the idiots around here to expose me or something............the tour guide,,,,,,,,,,,a young, short, white man.........very knowledgable............and kinda cool....................after he told us that neither the East or West gallery of art belonged to the SI..........which was a suprise to me.........i asked him if the museum of modern art belonged to the SI...............but i called it MOMA.........he said no, that MOMA was in NYC, NY...........that the one next to the castle was the Heirshorn museum.........he was correct on both accounts...........there is a MOMA in NYC and the building is called the Hirshorn........but the museum is also called the MOMA...............kinda like the American history museum is called the Behring........there is a name for the building and a separte name for the collection the structure contains.........
