Academic historians know the full picture of Culloden is not nearly so black and white, and they spend a lot of time debating exactly how many shades of grey were involved. But that's not very exciting. So Culloden lives on in the popular imagination as one of history's great tragedies, with northern Celtic heroes on one side and southern Teutonic villains on the other. Educating the visiting public about what really happened, without losing the magic, is one of the new centre's main aims. Earlier last year I went behind the scenes to witness the creation of the shiny, multimedia extravaganza inside. "You can press buttons on this panel here," explained one of the technicians, "and it will illuminate part of the battle scene on the wall over there." At the time the panel in question was still a mass of wires and circuits with no fascia and the screen was blank, but as with setting up toy soldiers the fun was in imagining what drama would unfold once everything was in place.

Locals call it the "tie plant" since it was once the nation's largest producer of railroad cross-ties. It was also among the industry's worst polluters, according to several prominent environmental scientists who now say Somerville residents for decades were exposed to wildly elevated levels of arsenic, dioxins and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons — all known cancer-causing chemicals considered highly toxic even at low doses. (For more detailed information, click here.) Dust samples taken during the last year from several Somerville homes and school buildings reveal contamination levels higher even than those found 30 years ago in Love Canal, the notorious chemical landfill in Niagara Falls linked to high rates of cancers and birth defects, according to James Dahlgren, a clinical assistant professor of medicine at UCLA School of Medicine who has been retained by plaintiff attorneys in several pending lawsuits against the plant.
