The announcement about the modems has been made repeatedly since February. Announcements were made to all the right people months, weeks, and days before it was moved. There is a plan to replace it with something else, however life interrupted that person's situation (not me) and it will get done when it gets done. Transportation to LSSM is also not something we can do on a whim. Please remember we're all volunteers. With that said, we would most welcome a large donation to allow us to pay a regular salary to employees who can guarantee we never have things like a temporarily empty exhibit and to shuttle things back and forth between interstate museums.

Interesting tidbit about the modem sharing- however, there still isn't very much communication going around here.
Did you all bother to let the docents know about this change for the modems? I was at the museum this weekend and nobody knew where the modems had gone! There is just an empty display cabinet sitting dejectedly there in the front of the museum, still brightly lit but empty. I would think that something would replace it before it was just taken.

We also are working very hard towards sharing exhibits and artifacts and are pleased to announce the modem exhibit featured previously at the VCF MA Museum is currently being set up at LSSM.
