At this point I'm not even sure I can afford the gas to get to Harvard, 
let alone pay for the rest of the trip for myself and Tette/Kelley, so 
talk amongst yourselves and if we *can* make it, we'll go with whatever 
the group decided. :-)

And if I can't go? Someone needs to stand in front of the Seurat for 
about 15 minutes for me. And the Chagall stained glass, too. Please.
