LATEST ADDITIONS

Tipped off by Stereophile reader David Goodwin, I recently visited the San Francisco Airport Museum's beautifully thought-out and executed exhibit The History of Audio: The Engineering of Sound. Installed to coincide with the 121st convention of the Audio Engineering Society, held at San Francisco's Moscone Center October 5–8, the exhibit runs through May 2007 in the North Connect Gallery of the airport's Terminal 3 (footnote 1).

Coverage will be starting Friday.

At a get-together the other night, I observed John Atkinson squinting at his cell phone when he received an in-coming call, and parroted Jon Stewart's remark that the amazing thing about the Mark Foley scandal wasn't that there was abuse in the page system, but rather that a 54-year-old could text message.
