If you've ever been to Chicago, and are at all the museum-going type, you've probably been to the Museum of Science and Industry. It's worth seeing, with the Omnimax 360 degree theatre, the over-priced coal mine ride, and the tons of cool techno gizmos. If you're anything like me, you can't resist the glass globe with the sparks that reach out to caress your hand, or the computer quizzes. But the best thing about it in 1989 was that it was still free. Only a ten-minute walk from my dorm, it was irresistible during those rare weeks of Indian summer, when it was warm and humid enough that you desperately wanted to be naked, or at least outside by the lake.
