Display Box Lost at the MBSI Convention
By Craig Smith

Hi,  If you attended the MBSI convention last week, perhaps you can
help me.

Since I couldn't attend, I sent an audio demonstration unit to the
convention for some people to look at.  I built the unit to demonstrate
how we could add sound to our museum displays when there is nobody
around to play the instruments.  Unfortunately, it got misplaced just
as one of the rooms was being cleared and when someone went back to get
it, the unit had grown legs and walked off.  They checked with hotel
security and it wasn't there that night.  I was hoping that someone
picked it up and has been wondering who it belongs to.  I suppose it
would have been helpful if I had put my name on it, but that isn't very
helpful in hindsight.

If you saw it or happen to have an idea of where it might be hiding,
please let me know so I can retrieve it.

Description: It is in a plain wooden box about 6" high by 12" wide by
3" deep.  There is a touch panel on the front with 12 pictures of music
boxes.  There is a small window on the back so you can see the
electronics; also an on/off switch.  There are 4 D-cell batteries
inside so it is sort of heavy.

Thanks for your help.  I'll send a picture separately.
