I'll go for another ride on TTA - oh yeah, that's down..bummer.

Anyone catch the recent one in America with Lincoln's hat? That entire exhibit of American and American spirit was terrific!!

Couldn't agree more, seeing the Lincoln and Rosa Parks artifacts were amazing. (to a History nerd like myself).

Don't they already have exhibition space near the UK showcase that could be used? How much of the Virgin Megastore space is the exhibit going to cover? Will there be a large amount of merchandise for sale?
