Re: Who Built Them?
I'll definetly surf eBay for you. Maybe that is where the Urban Legend developed that Twinkies would last forever?
First computer I ever ran was in our school library, A very early IBM had a 4" amber screen and displayed only numbers. I'm thinking that was right around 1970 or 1971.
Will let you know on eBay

Re: Who Built Them?
Those are pretty cool.. especially the second one. But, of course quartz has been known to hold certain types of energy.
I'd use one as a paperweight..  Very pretty..

Re: Who Built Them?
You got it, there are a few sites I've visited that have some of the neatest little gadgets. But then too...you are able to find needed things too, stuff that Wal-Mart no longer offers ( Classic Cars... hard to get 60's songs... Hmmm I better go get a mega millions ticket )

Re: Who Built Them?
I just wanted to mention.. I was watching America's most wanted a couple weeks ago.. and they were talking about a man who got into that new age thing.. like back in the 70's (I think) anyway.. they showed him sitting inside one of those pyramids, meditating..
I don't think it helped him though.. he was one of the top 10 wanted criminals..

Re: Who Built Them?
I'll bet he was wishing big time it would have helped. Back then, they were a big thing, Not sure if it would be called a fad or what, but they sure were popular.
