Hi Mark!
It would be tricky to carry the Imsai on the plane as carry on luggage!
I remember the good ol' pre 911 days when I would walk on the plane with
whimhurst machines, pieces of old radar sets... etc.... ( whimhurst machine
makes static electricity.... has counter revolving glass plates lyden jars
stc....)
You are welcome to stop by, the July - aug timeframe is our main
construction time here at the museum but if there are safe paths happy to
show you though!
Here in Arizona of course we have opposite tourist seasons from he rest of
the world it seems.... winter good summer echchch ( 116 degrees the
other day) so summer time is work on the building and displays time. to
get ready for September October!
Thank you for the invitation Mark, may not make the event on Sat. night as I
am usually by the end of the day pretty grimy, dehydrated and tired! but...
please do stop by and visit.
