There is simply no reason that every museum in the world shouldn’t have walk-thrus, with staff commentary, on-line for world-wide access. The same is true for parks, memorials, government buildings. Any institution that might be seen as needed for enriching the educational experience of students should provide a reasonable on-line access video for students to visit via the Net. (I have a list of WEB-sites with on-line museum tours which I tried to post, but this WEB-site's software seems to reject the posting.)
