I haven't heard anyone talk about the robot that was in the basement of what I hink now is Terri's Hid-a-way???   For some odd reason, I'm thinking that, that was the old Sears store?  But, I DO remember going down in the basement where a robot was on a stage behind a curtain, and they had a show every once in a while.  Anybody else remeber that?  Shackman.

Thanks. Yeah, I remember that. Seems like my class saw it on the 2nd floor of some building on west 2nd. Can't remember where exactly.

Speaking of Cohns, from before, does anyone remember the two very cute daughters that Herman Cohn had working there at the store?  God, I used to love their cherry and vanilla cokes, AND their phosphates, AND their REAL was it ice cream phosphates?  Shackman
