Notice a pattern?

And yes, we're open on Sunday, January 4th and so on.

Tours usually take most of 2 hours (sometimes more if you are very technical) so best to arrive by by 1 pm at the latest.

Is there anywhere else in the world where you can use a blue box to simulate phone phreaking? We don't think so, but let us know in comments if we're wrong.

It was stormy last night here in Seattle but we are still planning to open the museum at 10 am this morning as usual on Sundays.
