[NJARC] I Phone APPS

[davesica]

I had a chance to drop in at the museum on Saturday. I haven't been there
in quite some time when "the public" was there. It was busy enough that a
couple of times I jumped in to augment the docent staff since Ray and
John Tyminsky were already tied up with groups. John and Ray were talking
it all up quite nicely but the experience reminded me just how little I
know about some of the stuff we have on display! Still it was a lot of
fun. I'm making a New Year's resolution to get there more often.
