I hadn't realised that "exhibition" was used at all in the US, let alone
that there was such a fine distinction between "exhibition" and "exhibit".
Thanks for all the comments on this.  Now I know!

<<I think to American ears, grown accustomed to the shorthand of the press,
exhibit sounds 'right' while exhibition sounds a tad pretentious. >>

And yet Frasier and Niles Crane always talk about going to an "exhibit" and
who's more pretentious than they are? <g>
