We exist to quickly present news of importance to the international lace community. Why has no Arachne member written about this new lace museum that opened less than a month ago? I am half a continent away, there are lace experts closer to it, and I am the first to find it while doing a search for something else? Or, in a reversal of faulty mail reception, has someone written, but the news not come to me? Would someone or a lace group in the Detroit Area please physically visit this museum, write a report to us, and find out if IOLI is writing about this new member? IOLI is mentioned at the bottom of the new museum's website: _www.thelacemuseumllc.com/_ (http://www.thelacemuseumllc.com/) This museum's name is close to the name of The Lace Museum in Sunnyvale California. About 20 years ago, Lace Fairy was developing as the first virtual lace museum in the U.S., with my support. The name Lori Howe wanted to use was Lace Museum. I suggested not trying to compete with an existing museum, even if the management of that museum was slow to present itself to people who owned computers. Now, we Americans have a welcome mid-western lace facility, with very little in the name to differentiate it.
