Don, I must have missed this message earlier, I was browsing through my files and saw it. As for the significance of the name Crystal Cave, I lifted it from a book I read by Mary Stuart called "The Crystal Cave" which is about 'Merlin the Magician'. Since my first name is Merlin, and I have been accused many a time of doing 'magic' here and there, I thought it appropriate for a company name. I had decided to use it as a company name many years ago before I had ever ventured into business. Originally I thought I would own a video/audio recording studio and the company would be called Crystal Cave Productions. Well, I am getting closer anyway. (g) I am not familiar with your Cave Maps. They sound very interesting. Scuba diving has always been a hobby I wanted to get into but there is nothing in my area worth diving for, a few strip mines and sunken drag lines to get tangled up in and thats about it. When I was in the Submarine Service in US NAVY I almost became a SEAL because I wanted to scuba dive, sky dive and well, I like watching things blow up. (g) However, when I figured out that I'd have to hurt people I gave up that notion. (guess I better get the EXPLODE and FIREWORKS IPAS Routines) I suppose you do your diving in various areas on the planet. It sure sounds interesting. I wouldn't mind checking out your maps, and video as well, perhaps if you have a catalog you can send or leave me Email on some pricing I will get the opportunity to do so. I seem to work around my rendering schedule also, my wife however, is not near as supportive. Actually, I think she has a jealousy problem, of which I am sure will go away once the checks are bigger and closer together. I am getting closer all the time. An architectural firm is meeting with me after the holidays for some consulting on 3D-Studio. They talk as if they will be making a few hardware purchases, looking for some 3D lessons and then of course, want to put some work on tape. They have already passed the word as I have received two more calls from other possible clients that had heard of me through the aformentioned firm. Can't wait 'till after the holidays now to see how this will work out. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year Don & Family Merlin, Tori, Merlin Myself, wife, son
