I should have taken a picture while I was inside the building, but I didn’t. Not sure why. I took a load of other silly pictures while I was in SF yesterday and today. But what I want is to know how any average citizen can get into the building if he isn’t supposed to be? (I should have asked while I was there.) They have a neat education center, called the Fed Center, where they have on display all the money that has ever been printed by the United States. (Not each and ever dollar, but one of each style.) Interesting to see how it’s changed over the years and also to read why it may have changed. Like the Hawaii dollar during WWII — it would be easier to identify and remove from circulation in case Hawaii was invaded by Japan .
Anyhow, the point being that I’m not sure how it’s made available to the public. (the education center.) Security was tighter than trying to smuggle water onto an intercontinental flight. Wait. What? Well you see what I mean. I even had to ask someone to let me out of the building. You can’t just walk in and out off the street, you need to have a badge of some sort.
