Yes, that's where I work.  I'm listed here:

And here's the program I maintain, SOLAR:

Thanks for the warning.  What day are you coming out?  I don't  
normally get involved in tours.  Dr. John Blangero (or other senior  
faculty or administration) usually directs people past the glass wall  
of the machine room while citing impressive information about it.   
Perhaps you had something more technical in mind?  My first boss,  
Bennett, has retired.  Dr. Tom Dyer handles technical administration,  
Gerry
Vest and Richard Polich are system administrators.

I'm off in the far corner lab room next to the machine room, where  
all the important things (frig, microwave, printer, copier, fax,  
mailboxes) are.
