Sports blogger Matt Sebek recently noticed the machine that served up Internet access at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport had disappeared. So he took to Twitter to ask where it had gone.

Sure, that was an answer. But what really happened to the Internet machine? Could it be saved?
They are not available for sale.The parts that can be used are put to use RT @MattSebek: @flystl But what did you do with them? I want one.
