The family that makes robots together . . .
Today was reserved for visiting a classic, the Museum of Science and Industry. Much had changed since I was there last close to 20 years ago, but some exhibits were the same. Actually, a few hadn’t been updated much since I’d visited as a kid, nearly 20 years before that. Some cool old stuff, some cool new stuff, an unsettling number of interactive exhibits out of order or down for maintenance, and an amazing Body Worlds 2 exhibition.
Oh, and they had a nifty display of vintage robot toys from the fifties and sixties, a few I even remember owning myself. When we were done there, we used a plastic injection-molding thingy to make our very own super cool family of “Space Robots.” Perfect little green souvenirs, which have now lined up on the hotel desk to send their greetings to you.
