I've been using it, the national archives, the smithsonian archives, and the patent office since 1981.

I remember how cool it was that they had the card catalog on computer in the 70s.

I think I was there on a 7th grade field trip.  It was massive.  I forgot most of it though.  I'd like to visit there again.
