	The last I saw of the museum was in 1999 at the Sarnoff facility.   
The 'DTV Express' was staging its "Get Acquainted With Digital TV"  
Tour.  We travelled down Route 1 to Sarnoff just to see the mobile  
unit which had been touring the country.  Sarnoff Labs was open to the  
public that day as well and we also explored the museum.  Among other  
artifacts, I saw on a shelf an experimental color CRT most likely made  
in 1952 or so.  It was fun seeing the old equipment while just outside  
in the parking lot was the future of broadcast TV.  I wonder what  
happened to the 'DTV Express'?
