[Thursday] Radio Shop

[David Caldwell]

There's a little more SteamUp cleanup to do (putting away the model tables,
and vacuuming Mayes, Meeting Hall and Wireless Bldg come to mind) then back
to the shop. Today Ken packed up all the artifacts we salvaged from the
dumpster a few weeks ago and the room is looking pretty good. We need to
box up the magazines and journals; I don't want to move them loose. Still
researching which are keepers and which ones we'll try to find new homes
for, but we can move them as soon as they're boxed.
