[MACEP] storage compare

[Mary Hochberg]

Very fun, Ira. It's nice to see that "The Journey Inside" is still 
around and is being updated. I used to use it with my middle school 
students. It came with a video, batteries, wires, blank chips, etc, 
as well as a large silicon wafer, which I still have.
