Andy gave his first lecture on solar eclipses in general and our eclipse in particular. This lecture was delayed by a day or so in order to get the laptop actually talking to the projector, which required the attention of several of the techers and the sacrifice of several paper clips.
There were several more lectures over the next few days, but this is the only one I attempted to take photographs at.
RAW converted twice in ACR and merged with a gradient mask applied to 16-bit layers to bring out Andy's face with reasonable skin color in otherwise really bad lighting, while preserving the image on the screen. The result was reduced to 8-bit channels and saved as JPEG.

I couldn't WAIT to see inside the Chrysler Building for the first time in my life.
This crowd is listening to an openhousenewyork lecture on the building's genesis. I have to admit that I was a little disappointed that only the lobby was open to the public for the day...I wanted to go up to the top! However, a guard confided to us that it isn't worth it. Unlike, say, the Empire State Building, it does not have an observatory or viewing platform, and is accessible only by a series of ladders after the stairs end. Want to know what's up there???
A toilet.
The highest toilet in the world, or at least it was at the time. Walter P. Chrysler himself had an apartment up there and apparently liked the idea of relieving himself above the heads of his rivals (although of course, they weren't in the same building). I can't vouch for the veracity of this urban legend, but it sure makes a great story.
The ceiling mural is by Edward Trumbull, who also designed the decoration for the Chanin Building. It is called "Transport and Human Endeavor," and according to the speaker, is the largest indoor mural in the U.S. (or the world? I didn't quite catch it, but it seems hard to believe).
Incidentally, I had no idea until just now (looking up websites) that the building's ornamentation, including the gargoyles) are actually modelled after CAR PARTS- hood ornaments, radiator caps, and the like. For those who don't know, Chrysler is best-known as a car company.
Here's what OHNY said about the Chrysler:
