Enrique - 
I have already posted that I want to resolve the situation, in discussion 
with Mike Tatsugawa, in a public forum such as this, before the fans. No 
secrets, no hidden agendas, and y'all to tell us when our egos are 
getting too large. He has yet to respond to me directly, and his indirect 
response was to state that he plans to ignore all my postings. I am read, 
to discuss the subject. He won't talk to me.

BOTH of you are running cons in competition with each other.  Personally,
I don't give a flying #### who views who as a competitor.  I do care that
because of the splitting of resources by the various cons (Anime Expo,
Anime Con, AND Worldcon), there will be two mediocre anime cons instead
of one good one.  My question is, WHY does it have to be like this?

Too late.  You already have the "my con will be better than your con"
competitive mentality.  Mr. Tatsugawa has the same problem with his
"advance report" on Anime Expo '93.  To both organizers:

	Why can't you people resolve your differences like the
	responsible adults you're SUPPOSED to be, instead of
	dragging anime fandom down the mudhole with yourselves?

This is like saying some people like to call themselves geeks, but not

Anybody know the acutal figure of death in the Nanking Massacre? I just
watched the A&E special on the hiroshima incident. 80,000 people died
instanly. 80,000 people were injured. Most of them suffered horrible
radiation sickness. One of the worst kind of death, if you ask me.

The title "ONE" is from U2's song "ONE". If you read the lyrics, you will
understand later in the story why the title is that way. The main
character, Marin, finds herself part is saying, well you guys will see
soon. Heh he he he.
I think there is a Oneamise music video done by Public Anime (the guys
who also loves U2 (NOT you TOO!) and did those flyers, I took a lot of 
those :-) ) did it already. this is hearsay, but I would be the first one
to do it anyways.

  I was thinking more personality-wise on the screen rather

  big, limpid eyes...hmmm, with image processing these days
  maybe they _could_.  Hey that's an idea! A live action flick,

My girlfriend, who knows nothing of anime, bought me Dog Soldier for my
birthday...I didn't have the heart to tell her it sucked...but I wish the
comic store guy knew something of anime...he told her it was good...better
than Gunbuster or Dangaioh...

I went to this same comic store the other day.  I was going to meet a friend
and I had my copy of Macross II with my (the Anime Expo edition).  I asked 
the guy out of curiosity when he would be getting Macross II in so I could
use it as a basis to judge when the other ones would be released.  He said
he was bummed because no American company had rights to it!...I said that
USR did and he basically said that since he ran a comic store that he was
right and I was wrong...so I reached into my bag and pulled out my copy...
 
Well, he didn't really know what to say...But one wish that I have would be
for comic store people to be honest.  If they don't know anything about anime
then they should say so, insead of trying to B.S. their way past an otaku...

Hey, here's a question for ya:

I got hold of a model kit quite a few years ago, and I just thought
of the fact that it may be from an older anime.

The actual mecha's in bits, but it came with a sheet showing
pictures of the other mecha in the model series. On side 1:
A picture of a blue mecha with red trim and a large rifle ( I think )
and if I can remember right, its name was Jhau-Zamac. It's pilot was
a guy wearing a close fitting blue helmet. I think it was a special
prototype. The next was a red mecha piloted by a blonde girl named
Miria. It had ear lasers and a "beam-saber", as well as a large
rifle. It's name was Va-Gal. On side 2 of the sheet: A bulky green
mecha with pincers and ear lasers. It's pilot was the obligatory
fat guy. Next was a "high-speed pursuit" mecha named Ma-Drum. It
had machine guns built into the chest and special commo equipment.
It's pilot was...*gasp* a little guy with funny glasses. The last
was a mecha in white and purple with a cool rifle. It's pilot was
a normal-looking guy with goggles. I think the whole bunch was
called Megaro-Zamac. I thought it may be from an anime because the
pilots where drawn as though they where from a series or movie.
Difficult to explain.

Hey, a classic five-team :) !! So, was it an anime? Any takers?

TRY AGAIN!
I would think Michelle Pifer (sp) or could I say Jodie Foster would play
a great Deunan?! 
Hmmmmmmm as for Bri, well that is hard, since when he was human he was 
from an Afican-American background and I would guess a good voice for 
him could be Wesley Snipes (sp) or I can't remeber his name........
Well anyways, that's who I would think be perfect for those roles.
Oh well!
