Do you guys have a functioning RS-232 teletytpe (ASR-33 or KSR-33)
kicking around that might want to be donated to the Exploratorium for
a possible exhibit?

Hi
First, I'm sure the Exploratorium has a work shop that can create
RS232 converts without much problem.
I wonder what they want with them. While these machine are
relatively rugged, they won't hold up to the typical use of those
that got to the exploritorium.
Erik klein had his setup with an Altar to punch out peoples names
on paper tape ( banner style not ASCII ) at the Make Faire. The punch would
periodically jam, requiring someone to clear it.
I can imaging the pounding some would give it if it locked up
without someone there to watch it all the time.
