In the past few years we've had a couple of exhibits that used
compressed air as a key component, and we're going to be hosting
"Grossology" in the fall, which uses compressed air. My question: How
common is this? We're preparing for new construction, and wonder if it
would be wise to include a system for carrying compressed air from our
shop to the exhibit floor. Any thoughts? Is compressed air the "wave of
the future?" Or will it continue to be rare enough that we can simply
improvise when we need to?  Thanks!
