Barbara Boxer victory party (ON TOPIC)

I've received an invitation to a victory party for Senator
Barbara Boxer on December 10. (Yes, I did contribute...) What
makes this on topic is that the party is at the Old San Francisco
Mint at Fifth & Mission. It would be a bit inconvenient for me
to get there, but isn't the building normally closed to the
public? Is it worth the inconvenience to be able to get inside
the building? What should I be looking at/for if I go?
Thanks for any replies.

The San Francisco Museum and Historical Society is the new
"owner" of the building, and has been running public tours
for a number of months now, usually on Tuesday evenings and
Saturday afternoons IIRC. It's definitely worth a trip,
and be sure to ask where the cornerstone is located ...

Besides the two Presidential candidates, with their fifty million plus votes
each, Sen. Barbara Boxer received more votes than any other politician in
the country, running for any office, be it congress, Guvnor, or anything
else.. six million votes..

I suppose there was no way for a post with a title such as this NOT to
go immediately off-topic. [:: sigh ::]

It went off topic well before Harv's post. In fact Harv was
responding to an off-topic reply.

The State with one eigth of the entire population of the USA, the State that
produces more agriculture food for USA tables than any other, and the
seventh biggest economy in the world.. But of course, none of that matters,
does it..

Do we have to have this conversation again??..

Do you have to have this conversation here at all?

Take it outside, children. The adults want to talk about coins.
