Now... Where Were We?

Well, we’ve been pretty much right here — that is, wherever “here” might happen to be at any given moment in this strange, still-pretty-new world…

Why UCSC?
So, since we were once told (long ago) that "Terrapin Station" would contain these same types of items, does this mean that those of us that donated money long ago should give up hope? Is this confirmation that, since an "official" GD museum will never happen, these types of objects will best be preserved at UCSC? Also, given the LONG history between the GD and Berkeley, why not there? Does this have anything to do with the fact that UCSC has, for a LONG time, offered credit for a course in GD history? Or maybe it's because Cal has grown away from it's liberal roots in the past decade as it's academic reputation began to equal that of the Ivy league schools on the east coast (at a FRACTION of the cost) and it's students became more interested in their own careers than the social causes that helped to define and identify the name in the past. As a UC grad, I agree that UCSC is the holdout. As the UC schools gain more grants, more reputation, and more applicants. UCSC stands out as continuing to hold onto a vision of providing quality, liberal, PUBLIC education that reflects the values of the California community it grew out of. Cal, UCLA, UCSB, UCI - all LOST their liberal values as they struggled to win research grants and "select" the "best" students (those with high GPAs and SATs, but low Emot IQ and social concern). UCSC remains as the school that never gave up on their ideals. A good choice, IMNSHO... I wonder if any of the envelopes I drew on will be included!

artifacts....
I can't help thinking that putting this stuff at a university, sorta like a museum, sorta like a presidential library, pretty much says it all for the good 'ol grateful dead -- it's history. We can still enjoy and appreciate it -- but only as artifacts.

I just don't understand why all of this is taken so SERIOUSLY . . .(must be important) & then i learned what GDTRFB meant –]

Terrapin Station museum

"All that material, which Law explained would have found a home in the Dead's once-planned Terrapin Station museum, will be housed at the McHenry library at Santa Cruz." RELIX Magazine There is your answer. I haven't seen this comment in any other article regarding that UCSC deal. It's been more than a week. Don't bet on them posting the MP-3 of that press conference here either...
