Virtual Reality info?

      I'm posting this for a friend who would like more information
      on the current state of the art of virtual reality.

      I told him that I heard of a local nightclub that has a VR
      video game, but I can't remember the nightclub's name or
      location. Can anybody help me out here?

      He would like to know where he could go to see some true VR
      demos in action (besides the video game).  He says he's
      willing to drive as far as Chicago to catch one.  Also, if
      you know the names and/or addresses of institutions that are
      developing VR applications, he'd like to know that, too.

      Please email any info you have to me. I'll see that it gets
      forwarded to him.  I there is enough interest, I will summarize
      the info in a follow-up.

      Thanks in advance.

    It has come to my attention that the address in my reply-to header and
    .sig may not work due to some configuration changes. If replies fail, try

      wehr@fmsrl7.srl.ford.com   --or--   wehr@edi.com

    Or, if all else fails, don't hesitate to post.

    Thanks again.

The nightclub  in question is INDUSTRY   in  Pontiac , Michigan.   I  don't
know  how long virtual reality is going to be there, but  it costs $5.00
per game.  The night I was there is was extremely crowded,  I felt  like
a sardine.   THe line for the virtual reality simulator  was long, and I
didn't  get a chance to play it.
