(Cool. What media would you digitally project -- standard DVD, or
something else?)

Probably DVD, but due to legal restrictions they would have to come from
a distributor rather than the video store, and they might not be standard
in all senses. I don't know about that end of things.

The speakers in the computer room are now hovering 7 feet up.
Where'd all this floor come from?

IHB krj was hovering near the stage and quickly responded to my shouted
request to other hovering people to clear the path between me and the
sound shed by passing the message on in a very effective way.

One person in fifty (2% of the population) is Mensa-eligible. If you know
50 people it's very likely that you know at least one person who is eligible
for Mensa.
Given the self-selection on this system, I suspect that the percentage of Grex
BBSers who are eligible for Mensa is greater than 50% of the active
participants.

Given how low Mensa's standards apparently are, it's probably higher than
that.

Having been to a few of their "shindigs", I can share in your apathy.

I'm amazed how sturdy the model dome has become now that it is
more than half enclosed. This concept has real possibilities.

ihb my brother and i took mom to greenfield village for her 35th birthday
(and 50th celebration of same). mom was a guide at the villag for over
a dozen years.
lots has changed, mostly for the better, but the eshibits and
the rides are the same or better.
expecially the rides. ford has started to re-manfacture the model A/T <??>
to the original specs with modern techniques.
they picked up with the next serial number from the last model (X) that
was built.
rode in surry (w/fringe) adn automobile and carousel and several
houses/exhibits.
mom had a blast!
the requisite roses were delivered just as we arrived back
at her place. the world is lloking up, sort of.
b-roll was shot also.

Grex (Agora, at least) seems to have a higher intelligence level than
the 2-3 Mensa meetings I attended.

re 119: What are you dong in Japan?
re 118: You're telling me that entire items of "I'm number 100! Joy, wood,
log!" are more intelligent than mensa meetings? oi.

I have to agree with Scott. The MENSA groups I've attended were full
of bright and hardworking (to the point of being boring) people, but very few
true geniuses.
