I'm pretty sure the only connection between "Please Touch' and fi.edu is that Please Touch is across the street. At least that used to be the case.

The Franklin Institute was a fixture of my youth and a profound influence on me; I was a student member for ages. It's been excruciating to watch the Professional Museum Fundraisers^h^h^h^h^h^h People turn the place into a goddamned theme park over the years.

The last straw for me was when they tossed W3AA out. I'll never go there again.
