Huge photography archive inside PA mountain

I saw this on the news this morning, thought I'd share. It's housed inside a former limestone mine, along with other archives. Impressive collection, I wonder if they do tours?

Link points to a commercial. Here is a link to info on the CORBIS archive: http://www.wilhelm-research.com/corbis_subzero.html

Yes, but the guy should be fired for not wearing gloves!

Yeah, there is a 30 second commercial you have to watch before the video starts, but it's pretty cool...And I agree, I kinda cringed when I saw him handling those Einstein prints without gloves.
