Woo-Hoo!!!

John, that sounds like an excellent idea, especially considering that in the
past, the Technic/Mindstorms theme has been shoved off into a small room
upstairs at GMU. (Of course, I understand the situation and the space available-
no serious complaints here) Your plan will make a good show for the themes and
help draw in a larger audience.
There are usually other animated MOCs that aren't classified as
Technic/Mindstorms, such as amusement park rides. Perhaps you could advertise to
those creations and have them participate in "feeding time" as well.
I think 30 minute "show times" twice a day, every day of the 'fest, would be
great.
