       With late night breaks for Formula De, Nuclear War, 
       Car Wars, etc.

Now, the long news...

We've gotten a very good response for event submission and 
the schedule has a wide variety of events planned throughout 
the weekend.  We have a few more slots open for Full Thrust, 
one slot for Dirtside, and a few for Stargrunt.  Jerry will
be updating the web page with the events schedule once I 
send the first draft to him.

Gamemasters:  Please prepare your event descriptions and 
	      send them to me off-list.

(Is anyone from the Atlanta gaming group planning on coming 
 or running a game?)

As we introduced last year, we will be having a selection of
door prizes to be awarded based on your preregistration order.
Depending on when you submit your registration on or after 
December 1st, you will get to pick from a collection of figures.  
We'll have Full Thrust ships, Dirtside tanks, 15mm and 25mm 
figures available this year.

On a personal note:

Some of you know that on my first day back to work after the 
convention this year, I learned I was losing my job at the 
General Electric Corporate R & D Center after 19 years.

I interviewed for a position at the Knolls Atomic Power 
Laboratory and received an offer.  I have recently been granted
a clearance and this was my first week of work.  It has been 
a remarkable week and I'm sitting next to a couple of gamers,
both board and miniatures, in my work area!

It will be very satisfying work to be helping the US Navy and 
the nuclear submarine and carrier fleets, especially in our 
current war efforts.
