> if one is looking for a model for biographies, i suggest the -- in petersburg, virginia the national museum of the civil war soldier where individual biographies are presented. that could get at the whole witchcraft episode, including those who died but also others who were accused and also the accusers, and even other people in the area who were -- the judges. but those individual biographies are very effective there. >> don, how do they do it there? how do they present those? is it multi-media, through their objects? >> my recollection -- and it has been some years since i've been there -- is that the visitor selects a profile to follow in there, but it is not multi-media. it is a little older than multi-media. >> some of us are a little older than multi-media. >> yes, but it is effective. now they may be doing it differently, but it gets at the individuals. i think the point made that finding the lives of these individuals can get us much closer to the whole story. >> absolutely. we have time for maybe one or two more questions if people have them. charlie, and then over here. >> your re
