 |  | The Funny Grey Box -or- Obsolete Security Gadgets?
< on 1/17/2006 5:08 AM >
|  | | | And ideas what this thing is? Seicer and I encountered it Saturday night at a church. It was attached to the metal handrails.
The text on the back relates to FCC regs, but give no hint to its function. I'm at a loss.

| | | | The FCC regs must be because of the electronic keys these things have been using for the past 8 years or so. The real estate agent typically places the e-key in a dock at home which dials in everyday and gets updated codes.
In the old days, everyone had a key (looked like a vending machine key). Now it is possible to determine who accessed the box and when.

Props to anyone who gets that reference.
And back on topic, it is just a key box for realtors.

Ahem. Yeah, you shouldn't worry about that thing AS LONG AS you dont push any buttons (if it is the keypad type) because they have logging devices as I recall.

Yeah I would have never guessed that, especially since the place was condemned by the City of Cincinnati of all things.

| | | | To be honest, Oregon Trail is pretty well known, my mastery of the game (and sequel) and similar mastery by pretty much everyone I've ever known doesn't really make the reference that impressive.

| | | | We didn't get Oregon Trail up north, at least not in my school. We had Cross-country Canada, which was all about haulin grains and stuff across Canada. The best part was when you randomly hit things in your truck and the windshield cracks. Awesome graphics!

every elementary school in the world had a lab like that, a couple of apple ][+'s with the white power light. the //e's with the little green light and the switch under the keyboard to make the language change. we had these green monochrome apple monitors you could adjust the angle of and a couple of amdek monitors that were color, we used to fight over those! |
