I like that they now show individual buildings, but how long have we had a Chinese museum and a glassblowing shop? >_>

The "Chinese Museum" is in the middle of the field, there is no building there. And the Glassblowing shop is MUSC. Weird!

I saw the glassblowing shop earlier, but I thought it was a joke. And a Chinese museum too? This is very odd :/

Go to COMPASS and say "I'm look for a good time with my bros, take me to where the glass blows." The attendant should proceed to give you the password that opens the portal to the glassblowing shop.

We have a lot of interesting workshops. Certain labs need custom equipment. I've been in a machine shop in the Health Science centre. Quite interesting.

I've actually heard about the glassblowing shop. http://www.science.mcmaster. ca/glass/index.html It's actually affiliated with the Faculty of Science, and they manufacture unique glassware that can be used for chemistry purposes.

The only reasonable explanation is that there is a Chinese museum on the exact opposite side of earth, such that you could theoretically dig straight downward and eventually find it.
