	He was at Rochester, 2006, and brought a bunch of high speed  
videography equipment. He did a lot shooting of things like Ron Overs'  
action, the Cristofori action model, and a Wapin before and after. At  
the time, there was a sheet for people to express an interest in a DVD  
of some of the footage, which was signed by a lot of people. I saw him  
next year in KC, and asked how that was coming. He told me nobody from  
PTG had followed up on it.
