It seems from your replies so far that you both have a girlfriend currently and have had some prior luck with the opposite sex. Can you provide some more detail about how women react to you as a potential partner?

Hi, Mr. Cuno. Thanks for doing this. My mom has worked for the GRI for several years now, and not long ago completed a degree in Museum Studies at Johns Hopkins. In her program, while discussing the idea of how to keep the general public interested in visiting museums, they brought up the idea of museums of the future being sort of "cultural centers" where people go as regular parts of their day. The one specific example I remember is the idea of having childcare facilities in museums, so parents would drop their kids off, go to work for the day, stop by after work to pick their kids up and then visit some of the museum's exhibits before they leave. Is this sort of thing something you could imagine the Getty doing in the future? What sorts of things do you think will help make museums more important in people's daily lives?

Perhaps I phrased that oddly, but the implication was that the kids would also be visiting the exhibits with the parents. The childcare facility would also do things at the museum, since it would be on the grounds.
