#3 I've been to the Lucille Ball/Desi Arnaz museum in Jamestown, NY (south and west of Buffalo).

Kind of kitchy and overstuffed but I've never seen a more enthusiastic crowd at a museum gift shop.

#7 I don't know if it was Ricky or her but they developed the 3 camera setup so they could shoot all the coverage in one take. Saved time, money, and changed the way sitcoms were filmed. Someone was smart.
