And if you have never been in the stairwell of Packard, I think the stairwell between floors 1 & 2, and 2 & 3, have great potential.  Lots of echoes there, and the stairs are made of metal!

This is the week when I carried a small slinky around with me 24/7, to show anyone who would listen. :) Later I switched to a piezo disk, audio amplifier, and headphones. Still have plans to pop a balloon in Packard stairwell one of these days. Stomped down the metal stairs in tap-dancing boots the other day, that was LOUD.
