Database Manager on June 25, 2010:

Updated through on-line information from Bryan Dunnewald. -- Möller Console in bad repair. Most combination action doesn't work. Pipes in OK state, but needs tuning. The wind pressure is way too low for the organ. Basically, it needs some major attention. Room is small, and extremely dry.
