I agree with Jim, I RATHER have Anime Expo at Westin than in Oakland.
With the reputaiton Oakland has right now, I hate to be (as they way I
allready am) more parionoid than I should be about staying there.
Jim has a lot of GOOD points about having it at Westin, Great America
is right across teh street (and I would like to take my friends who 
live out of town in Cailifornia to go there) and the San Jose Airport
is NOT that far away from there, I would DOBT very much that Westin did
not have any shuttle service to get there. Another reason is that I am 
sure Westin is A LOT CHEEPER to stay than it would be at Parc or Red Lion.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but not too many fans have a lot of $$$$ to
spend on a room.
ANOTHER reason, is that the freeway is right there to go up to J-Town
in SF to show around friends, it might take 30 mins, but don't have to
worry about toll booths.
And my lat reason is, that I think I would be a tad embarrased about 
any of the GOH's seeing what Oakland is like, it's not a nice place to
show somebody from another contry, knowing them they might think this
is what a lot of teh cities in the US are like (partly true, but still).
I might get flamed for dissing Oakland, but I would not like to worry
about going out of the hotel at night to go out and get shot at.
Sterotypical, but true, at least in this case.
Unfortunatly,I hate to bring that up.

This is a question that cannot be easily answered. I shall elaborate as to why. 

Because of your 'address' I will assume that you are in North America. We use the NTSC system here and those people who are responsible for the development of the High-Definition TV system and its compatability with the existing NTSC system have still to decide on many issues (both technical and otherwize). For this reason it will be a while before HDTV will exist commonly here. Hence: 'I can't really advise you what to do'. 

In Japan, they have a HDTV system and they have LDs that are 'encripted' with information that will normally consist a HDTV picture. There is a particular standard/ssytem that is used it is called MUSE. There are several MUSE LD players available. But they are, alas, in Japan only (to my knowledge).

Subject: New Valkyrie kit question
Date: 3 Sep 92 19:44:02 GMT
Reply-To: jimn@phred.UUCP
Organization: Physio-Control

The ingeniously conceived Valkyrie fighter plane was and still is available in plastic injection kit form in three scales: 1/72, 1/100, and 1/200. The 1/72 and 1/100 kits came in both transformable and non-transformable versions, and there was also a 1/144 kit containing all four modes: jet, walking jet, walking jet with arms (Gerwalk), and humanoid (Battaroid).

Through a colleague who's getting into the Japanese model import/export business here in the Seattle area, a couple of weeks ago I saw the Gerwalk form of his assembled Bandai 1/100 transformable injection kit of the NEW Valkyrie from the new Macross movie. The design is quite sleek, somewhat organic-like, and appropriately "advanced" looking over its 1980's predecessors. He mentioned the manufacturing was such that this new kit readily maintains poses... apparently UNlike its predecessors.

So now my question (which he couldn't answer). Bandai's issued the new multi-pose 1/100 kit, but will they --or some other company-- also be offering SINGLE-POSE kits of the new Valkyrie, just as there were single-pose kits of the old Valkyrie?

Please post your answers to the whole net, not just to me. Thanks!

Only as an import.  There were plans for a theatrical release, but I

About the Ranma 1/2 game. Does anyone know of any special sequences etc?

To play the same character, you can hold L and R and press start.

If you do this at the selection screen (select a 2 player game), it 
gives you an "option" type screen where you can pick whoever you want
to play. Anyone who owns the game probably knows this already, but
I'm just posting in case someone doesn't... I was wondering if there
were any other "secret" features in the game?

USMC seems to be getting lots of bad press here at r.a.a. because of their
release of, well, questionable titles (ie Crystal Triangle and Dog Soldier).
Although I agree that there are more popular titles that could have been 
released, I have found that some of the 'off' titles are really very good.  Case

Well, a lot of today's SF (American as well as Japanese) is heavily 
influenced by the Syd Mead/Ridley Scott vision of a dark, dirty, steamy,
rainy, plastic future.  (Look at the whole cyberpunk thing.)

For some reason, I thought the references to BR in BGC were kinda
amusing, but I was annoyed by the use of "spinners" in Silent Mobius
(identical to the BR spinners) and the blatant ripoff of a couple of 
BR scenes in the SM manga.  I guess I just don't find the joke funny 
when it's been done already ..

	The P.A.C. will also have its booth at Purdue's 
	Activities Carnival tomorrow (friday). 
	In our case, anything could be expected to happen...
	Even the rain seems friendly enough to stay and give us
