Want to discuss the old COSI? Most of the pictures on this site can be seen at the Facebook group The Old COSI. Another Facebook group with a lot of members and some discussions is I Miss the Old COSI. There is a 2nd group also called I Miss the Old COSI on Facebook now too.
If you are a former volunteer or employee there are 2 sites with some activity called Former COSI volunteers and The Official COSI Alumni Spot.

Website Creator This website was created and is maintained by Eric Upp. I have recieved a lot of help from others especially from Douglas Reedy whose technical advise and finds have greatly enhanced this website. If you have a picture, a story, or something else that you think would fit well on this website or just want to leave a comment then please contact me at ericupp@gmail.com. Thank you.
Things in particular I'm looking for:
Pictures: There are definitely many areas I'm missing or could use better/more pictures or info for. While I don't promise to put any picture sent to me up, all pictures anywhere in COSI will be appreciated. The specific pictures that I'd like the most would be:
There is a fan page on Facebook for The Old COSI. While I help out with this, most of the credit needs to go to Brad Waldsmith for getting this set up.
Basement: More coal mining pictures. I'd like to make a coal mining section like the Time Tunnel section, but don't have the pictures for it.
1st floor: Pictures of the lockers, gift shop, and admissions. Pictures of other areas of the main exhibit area, especially the High Tech Showcase.
2nd floor: Pictures of some the exhibits in the weather/waterwonders/economics/crime/etc area.
3rd floor: Life sciences. I'd really like to replace the maze with the normal exhibits.
Map: I would love to put older maps up.
Audio: I now know at least some of the soundtracks that played in the Time Tunnel, planetarium, and coal mine. If you know of any others, please e-mail me.
