COVINGTON, Ky. (AP) — The basement of the 150-year-old Ice House in Covington is about the closest you can get to time travel. Images of the past 100 years flicker on screens. Stacks of film fill rooms. Staff scuttles between modern computers and decades-old reel-to-reel devices preserving historic footage - including every NASA space shuttle launch. The basement of PPS Group in Covington contains the past as well as the future within its walls. It also has the most incredible collection of ancient technology this side of the last century. That's because PPS CEO Bob Gerding owns large videotape machines the size of cars from the 1950s.
