>> >> for a CIS group gathering? aside from the Tuesday gala? >> >> Sounds like fun to me! Let's have a quick poll – how many CIS types >> will be in town on Sunday evening for a pre-show party? Depending on >> how many answer, we could pick a spot and go for it! ATTENTION ALL SIGGRAPH ATTENDEES AND CA 3DS USERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Any and everyone who might be interested in a get-together Sunday nite leave a message to Greg Pyros 73027,3632 and we'll try to set up something. I think John Foust of Syndesis has volunteered to rent out Disneyland for us <BG, d & r>!! Also, anyone wanting to help Greg set up his booth, can show up Monday at Anaheim Convention Center with work gloves, screwdrivers and the $20 "work fee". Beer will be provided. <g><g><g> NOT. Dave

Greg is laying low, he hasn't answered my query… Hey Greg this wasn't meant to put you on the spot! Well sort of, but not really. I realise you've got alot of things to get together for the show and coordinating something like this might boarder on outrageous, but seeing as L.A. is your stomping ground and you're well known by most if not all… seemed like a good idea. Actually someone who knows the area who can suggest a place to meet at a certain time near the convention center would be ideal, get a bunch of animators together, you've got a party! -JE

John: >> Greg is laying low, he hasn't answered my query Sure I did! Party's on, Sunday night, place to be determined by number of responses! Somewhere within a 15 minute's drive of the Convention Center, I promise! Doug Wolfgram, are you back from vacation yet? Steve Ormonde? Martin Foster? Let's show these 'foreigners' how we throw a party here in southern California! Greg Pyros

Greg, I am back <said in a REALLY good Arnold accent>! Although I keep going off up to West L.A. every weekday. Sunday sounds great to me for the initial, non-official, Siggraph, warm-up, party.

Kevin, no, actually, I'm doing some work for a completely different company. Although, I still keep in fairly close contact with Richard and Alberto.

Yes, indeed. Syndesis has rented the "It's a Small World" ride for Sunday evening. We all get to ride around in little boats, and they're never, ever going to turn off the music.

My wife loves that ride; it drives me up the wall. I've made up my own alternative lyrics to ease the pain.

John: Did you pay for the shotgun option, where each of us is issued a 12 gauge pump and 20 rounds when we get on the boat? Evan

You mean to target-practice the incredibly perky uniformly shaped but internationally attired dolls? Yes.
#49482From: Evan Yares [WeirdTM]Jul 13, 1993 4:21 AM
I want to try and nail the sound system. That song — "It's a third world afterall" just makes me insane. Evan
#49818From: Mike MorrisonJul 16, 1993 1:35 AM
Hey! Now I want in on this! Forget the shot gun, lets get Uzzies! I just had to suffer that ride about a month ago, arrgh! -MM

At about the same time in the Disneyland Hotel, is the exhibitor party for the entire show… but I think those parties tend to be less than exciting.
#50035From: MARTIN G FOSTERJul 18, 1993 6:18 PM
John, I went to that gig (Disneyland Hotel exhibitor party) at NCGA '92 and it was OK, and there were a few novelties like a gyro-ride contraption and a velcro wall. After the novelty had worn off it was fairly dull, so I left quite early. The nightclub shindig/Asoft party should be more fun, IMHO.
#50180From: Evan Yares [WeirdTM]Jul 19, 1993 6:37 PM
Martin: Both Cohn and I did the gyro ride and the velcro wall at NCGA. I'm fat enough that I didn't stick on the velcro wall. Evan
#50195From: MARTIN G FOSTERJul 19, 1993 8:35 PM
Evan, I remember it well, I saw you both frolicking at the velco wall attraction. I believe you helped throw David Cohn against the wall – quite amusing <g>.
#50224From: Jul 20, 1993 12:30 AM
I remember David Cohn doing a flip and landing upside-down on the wall! What a sight! Greg
#49376From: David RhotenJul 12, 1993 9:35 AM
Darn! I was going to reply with "AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH", but I see Greg has beaten me to it! (How 'bout "It's a 3D-World"?) Dave
