Ted,
Im forwording this to the SandLUG group as well. We had a couple of SandLug
members that have contributed to the layout that I wanted to thank. Hopefully
theyll join the SCLTC as well. John Cooper contributed his LUGNET blimp launch.
And Aaron Sneary built the creeping pollution and modern shipwreck section of
the under water area.
Thanks Guys,
Mat
