Hi Everyone,

Great work by everyone in getting through most of our list from last week.
I'd say most items were finished off between Thursday and Saturday.  I have
a new list for this week:


   - Washing engines in steam building.  Let's try some concentrated
   cleaner to actually scrub the painted surfaces.  Many frames and bearing
   caps still look very dingy.  Large GE generator, Greene, New Harris, NY
   safety vertical, large Isbell-Porter
   - Wireless building, vacuum shelf with electrical apparatus and spark
   gap transmitter.  I saw some mouse droppings.
   - Wireless building, vacuum inside display windows and wash glass if
   time allows.
   - Wireless building, try glueing or taping (red duct tape) carpet near
   Nipper statue.
   - Meeting hall basement, clear cobwebs
   - Shop, overall cleanup. Possibly use hoist to move bases for rolling
   shelves up into the attic. Just to create some space downstairs.
   - Start setting up steam and air tables.  We can also opt for 1 table as
   discussed earlier.

I think we are in great shape and should have a record year.  We're hearing
that people and other museums are noticing all the new energy we have going
on.  Hopefully, this means we'll have lots of new visitors.  Let's please
try to make the best impression we possibly can.

Thank you!
