Modest amount of visitors today -- it was too nice outside to visit a museum! A group of 20-somethings came in for a tour. They were smart, polite, and asked good questions. They seemed amazed by computer life before Windows and about the myth vs. reality of how Apple formed. Jimmy from the model trains group is a programmer in the day job and helped me debug the information kiosk. It wasn't always returning to the homepage after the set amount of time. Hard to fix that without seeing the kiosk program code, so he showed me how to put some Javascript into the my content pages that accomplishes the same thing. This way is better because I can customize the events that trigger idle states, the amount of idle time for each page, etc. I did some warehouse work too. Organized more of the robotics and educational/trainer kits, and disposed of a growing pile of unloved books/software (certain things that nobody took from the 'free' pile at VCF East.) Doug is docent tomorrow.
