I forgot about the constant Muzak!
I recall some greasy pastries at the Mexican pavilion.

I own the 78 flexi-disc, "The Triumph of Man", and played it for guests one July 4 in the 1990s. They all though it was corny except for me and my friend Peter, who thought it impressive.

I just recalled: one of the Big Corp exhibits (maybe Bell) had a booth you could go in and when you talked it made your voice sound different with different tones. People outside the booth would laugh at you. I did it. So Futuristic. (Like some WFMU DJs do now! The promise of the future.)
