The cafeteria is open, there is a Starbucks and even a nice Italian across the street if you want to treat yourself. On Wednesdays we have a demo of the IBM 1401 at 3 pm, and before that the restoration team works on it from 10:30 am on (it needs constant maintenance and repairs to keep it running).
When I saw the 1401 at CHM, somehow it just seemed DIFFERENT than the one the college had had half a century ago.
Then, I realized the the difference was that at the CHM one, everything was CLEAN, and it was without the pervasive smell of burnt oil from overheated items, and spills that hadn't been cleaned up.
