Later, at the Coralville Public Library I received an incoming transmission.  Wait, those headsets didn’t work!

Ah, yes, these headsets worked much better.  Transmission received.

Wow, what an honor. Coralville made Dan Wardell sculptures out of diamond.  Or maybe they were made out of packing tape.  I can’t really remember [...]
