Hi Eric,

I think you of all people know the absolute thrill of having other people admire
your work. Family and friends can only admire so much. Having 15,000 people
admire your skill at a show is breath taking! It is even more fun to take off
your exhibitor's badge and stand behind people as they talk about your display.

The motion in the castle was designed not be obvious. The idea was to have a
viewer look at the castle, look away, and then catch movement out of the corner
of the eye. As the viewer tried to see what moved something else would move. By
randomizing the events the viewer would not know what to expect and therefore
would watch the display for longer. Viewers would watch the castle for several
minutes to understand what was going on.

Thanks for your encouragement. I think there might be an automated moonbase in
my future.

Roy
