    Hi Mal,
    I thought about you while I was reading an article about vintage technology.

    What It Takes To Let People Play With the Past http://spectrumieee.org/vintage-tech/libi-rose

    In the article there is a link to MAL http://mediaarchaeologylab.com
    THE COMPUTER LAB OF YOUR DREAMS
    in Boulder Colorado.

    At the bottom of that page is a Email Address:
    mediaarchaeology@colorado.edu

    I thought You and Others would be interested reading the articles I saw today.

    Mal, I hope the first link works,
    After submitting my post that link showed a different page than the one I read today.
    You might have to visit their Home Page: spectrumieee org to get to the article there
    It may be as simple as changing the prefix to https instead of http?
    I just guessed to put http ahead of the address.

    The second link in my original post worked just fine when I tried it just now.

    There is always Something or Someone to keep me humble, this time it's computer things.

    Thank You
    I just was looking at other articles on that website and noticed that DOT that I failed to put in and was going to write a correction to my post . spectrum.ieee.org .
    I am going to blame my eyesight AND this cellphone I use now.

    Thanks for figuring out the link before I did.
