: Damn good idea!

: Ok.  It took a while, but I have added narratives on most (if not all) of the

: specifics.  For that you need to contact the Dept Head.

: It's funny that you mention pictures of the various areas, because at the last 
: LepreCon we went around and recorded sample video footage.  Our intention was 
: to use it to make a commercial on the local feed of the SciFi Channel on cable 
: TV.  We still might be able to pull it off, but I don't know.  There are a 
: number of technical issues still pending.  We did it before, but the ad was 
: mostly still frames and computer animation.  We wanted to show short live 
: action bits of attendees, events & locations.  That is what I am after now.  

Jim: If you're going to put video clips up, put stills up on the main page
(just little gifs) and have the user click on the still to get a video.

(By the way: I like the music you've used - I just don't like having it
 auto-load.)
