Just got the latest issue of Video Toaster User. It just keep getting better and better. Great info on The Flyer, Reviews and Tutorials. The Toaster Expo on Dec. 14, 15 in Hollywood is looking to be the best show of the year. Congrads to VTU on both! TP

Pat, I'd sure like to know how yur co-worker got his copy of VTU last Wednesday. They weren't even off the press until Thursday! Subscriber copies were mailed on Friday. JP

Okay, maybe I'm confused…. It was VTU, and the cover was predominetly white, but I only saw it from across the desk. Maybe he has a time capsule? -Pat "Cruising the North Coast on Autopilot"

Tom, Thanks for the kind words. I was disappointed in the Flyer article. It was supposed to continue in the back of the magazine. Notice how it kind of ends abruptly? There wasn't too much cut off, except my acknowledgment of James Hebert and Peter Tjeerdsma for their contributions to the piece. Actually, they wrote more of that article than I did! They deserve most of the credit. The VT Expo is really coming together. Ann just finished the floor plan. Have you seen it? I'm pretty psyched about this event. There will be many cool things to see (like Alpha Paint!) Jim

Jim, The latest issue of VTU I have is from August, and I sent a FAX asking for info on the expo. I just read the thread and I just found out it's in Dec 15. Too bad… My wife is expecting and we have been told it's gonna happen on the week of Dec 20-27, maybe earlier. Looks like I ain't going to this one 🙁 Would you have someone fax me the info anyway? I may send three of my animators to it, since I can't go. The number is (011525) 286-3382 in Mexico City. Thanks for the help. P.S. I have a subscription to VTU that I got while I was still living in the US, in Dallas. Is there any way of changing it so that I can have it delivered to Mexico City instead? It's a bitch getting it here off the shelves. Thanks again.

Nooooooo: I hate The Hill unless I'm going to City Walk for a movie. Hey dose this mean we can get a tour of Amblin since it will be so close… I thought you were having it in Pasadena what changed. Brad Hayes H.V.C.

Brad, John Gross said he'd be happy to take 1 or 5 large groups on a tour to Amblin…as him, you'll see… 🙂 I don't know where you heard Pasadena. I don't think Pasadena was ever on our list. Maybe you're thinking of World of Commodore? Hawaii is going to be a blast! JP

Jim: I thought Ken Wilder (LATUG/Marmalade) had mentioned it, but I could be wrong. I will ask John I can practicly see the Universal lot from my balcony. I had never thought about bringing it up before, that was kind'a a joke, But I would love to. hey, as long as I have your ear (or eyesas the case may be) I havev't recived my VTU yet, I thought you had said they went out last friday. I usuly get them at the latest by the 7th. Should I head the the local news stand yet…? Brad Hayes Hayes Visual Communication

Jim, Hopefully, if you do this next year it will be earlier, like in Oct/Nov. I was planning on goint until I heard the dates. Unfortunatly, I will be about directly on the other side of the globe at that time :^{ wmc – via Autopilot!
