ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.

I believe the only piece of Mathematica we're missing in Boston is the 
multiplication cube, although the Mobius strip is current waiting for 
repairs.  We, like NYHS, added a piece to the history wall replacing a 
poster entitled "Living Mathematicians" that was adding when we 
purchased the exhibit in 1982.  I am also a huge fan of the peep shows 
and would love to see them back in the exhibit. Five years ago or so, 
our local independent cinema (the Brattle Theater in Harvard Square) 
showed a collection of Eames films which included an ad for Westinghouse 
products sung in alphabetical order.  It was fabulous. I haven't been 
able to find a copy of it since.
