I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.

* California Science Center
o IMAX Theatre at California Science Center

The park is public-space owned by the state of California, whose major cultural facilities mentioned above are operated by both the state and Los Angeles County. Originally, the 160-acre (0.65 km2) site served as an agricultural fairground from 1872 to 1910. (hence its original name Agricultural Park) Farmers sold their harvests on the grounds, while horses, dogs, and even camels competed along a racetrack where the rose garden now blooms today.
In 1880, John Edward, along with Mr.Ozro Childs, and former Governor Downey persuaded the State of California to purchase 160 acres (0.65 km2) in Los Angeles to foster agriculture in the Southland. Soon after USC was built in 1880, the city's most influential families moved into the neighborhood, but did not appreciate the racing and the gambling that came with it. As a result, the rose-garden replaced the racetrack, and the park became what it is now with its grand museums.
Along the northern edge of the park, the Expo Park/USC Station is under construction. When Phase 1 of the Metro Expo Line opens (end of 2011), this station will provide access to the park at Exposition and Trousdale .

I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com
and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.
