...coastal state, try either the Museum of Science (Science Park) or the Aquariam(Central Wharf). At the museum, don't miss the electricity show with world's largest Van de Graffe generator to make hair stand on end.

("I hate the Yankees," he explains.) Gifford, the ex-New York Giants running back, is Felix Unger, the neat freak. Although Meredith did a show at the same theater last year, this is the first time on the boards for Gifford. No matter: his football experience comes in handy.
