I received this e-mail from a great guy from a great team: Dan Gee from the HOT team (#67).
I didn’t get his permission, but I don’t suppose they will mind my posting this on our site
(Dan can kill me later if I guessed wrong)
FROM:
This message includes an announcement for an animation symposium to be held
November 6th.
Please share this information with your animation people. In addition to some
good animation presentations, Autodesk has provided 5 copies of 3DS Max R3 to be
given away to FIRST Teams. Individuals must register online to be eligible to
win.
The symposium is scheduled to follow the Huron Valley Schools Lego League
competition that begins at 9:00 am. People interested in both activities can
come and make a day of it.
Sincerely,
Daniel Gee
