[SunRescue] List Administrivia

[brian]

All the geeks on this list and no one mentions the National Cryptologic
Museum when discussing museums in Baltimore? How disappointing...

More interesting than sewage history if you ask me, but that's just my
opinion <grin>

This is the best railway museum I've ever been to.

You don't necessarily need a car to get to it.  Take the light rail from
north
or south and walk a couple of blocks.


Also at the inner harbor is a Museum of Public Works.  It covers City
water
supply, transportation, and sewers.  (Maybe also electrical power and
natural
gas?)  One of the few in the world that specialize in this topic.
Outdoors at
the front of the building is an exhibit representing all of the pipes
under a
typical city street.  What a rat's nest (like the wires in my office :^)
).
