is sufficient interest (10 or more folks want this) I will make
available a two-hour videotape which includes:

        Sen. Gore on federal government interest in VR technology
        and its development in the U.S. (+ concerns about Japan VR)

        Presentation by Jaron Lanier, VPL (incl. video of latest system).

        Presentation by Dr. Fred Brooks, UNC (incl. slides and video)

        Presentation by Dr. Tom Furness, Univ. of Wash. (slides)

        Question and answer session between senators and presentors.

Paper supplements to be included:

        Transcript of hearing.

        Submitted papers from panelists (if there are no objections
        from the authors).

I will post a detailed synopsis of the tape in the next few days.
