   Someone who lives around the Seattle area surely remembers this place...

   What happened to the "Old Technology Shop"?  They used to be at 7712 
Aurora Avenue North,  206/527-2829

   I remember going by the place several times, but I could never get 
there when it was open.  They had posted hours of:
   12:30 - 6:00, Wed thru Sat, 2:00 - 6:00 Sun
but these seemed to be 'more honored in the breach' etc.

   The place always had interesting items on display in the window, 
generally 'vintage hi-tech' stuff, like anything from BA Tektronix 
o'scopes to Marchant mechanical calculators to slide rules.

   Eugene, I hope you enjoy your stay -  this place would be well worth 
a visit if it is still there...  Does anyone know if the "Old Technology 
Shop" is still in business?
