I have been impressed by the Boston Museum of Science (but then I'm a
science teacher).  They have a 3 story high Vandegraaff Generator that was
originally Robert Vandegraaff's research machine at M.I.T.  They do a very
impressive demonstration show.

Have fun at Logan International.  When we came thru there about a week ago,
the line to get thru security into the main gate area appeared to be more
than 2 hours long.  We were pleased to be going the other way.

Good luck,
