Now, a mailing list fading away once its job is done is no problem, but newsgroups tend to be longer-lived. I'd like a name that reflects a broader-based (and longer-duration) area of interest. Perhaps something about 3-D pointing devices in general? Gloves, head- mounted displays that track your head movements, datasuits, etc etc. -- Bernie Roehl, University of Waterloo Electrical Engineering Dept Mail: broehl@sunee.waterloo.edu OR broehl@sunee.UWaterloo.ca BangPath: watmath!sunee!broehl Voice: (519) 885-1211 x 2607 [work]
