As it happened, I managed to go see it this morning - the weekend's plans are in flux right now & it was likely to be my last chance. I do wish they'd kept it going for a little longer!<BR/><BR/>It was fun - there was some technical glitch that was making it look very web-cam, and the Telectroscope staff was a little bummed about that since evidently that hadn't been happening before - but we had a gentleman in London doing magic tricks for the Brooklynites, and there was a guy who'd arranged to meet friends & had his cell phone & they were having great fun, and then just a lot of sign language communication (by the time I had to leave I think the facts that it was 8 am in Brooklyn and lunchtime in London).bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794351142636136626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-23862536105375670042008-06-05T20:33:00.000+00:002008-06-05T20:33:00.000+00:00That would be a fun thing to do!

If you know in advance when you will be there let me know. <BR/><BR/>Its worth a look and its only on for a very short time which is a shame - I think it ought to be kept there all summer at least.JPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10749223049615363296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18283526.post-77944495765385266362008-06-04T22:55:00.000+00:002008-06-04T22:55:00.000+00:00If I had no life and you had no life I'd say hey, ...If I had no life and you had no life I'd say hey, we should arrange to be at this thing at the same time, take each other's pictures and then do a post about it.<BR/><BR/>Fortunately I think we both have lives.
