The address is: Denver Museum of Nature & Science 2001 Colorado Blvd. Denver, CO 80005 Budget cuts have been made at the museum. This was taken from the Denver Post, Sunday edition: The cuts have even reached "Space Odyssey" staff. Curator Laura Danly was let go when she volunteered to leave rather than cut another person in her department. She had been the museum's space-sciences curator for five years. "It's wrenching. It's a tough time," Laura Danly said, refusing to comment further. The Denver Post was being polite with the above statement, as Laura Danly RESIGNED IN PROTEST, per an earlier Rocky Mountain News article. So, one letter won't do any good, a dozen letters requesting a meteorite display may get them thinking, but a few hundred would catch the museum's attention. E-mail? Better then nothing. After all, it's not like they would have to go out and buy the meteorites. You should see the Glorieta iron! A beauty.
