This is just a short follow up to my earlier request for info. A number of
people have responded already (thank you all). One name that has come up
a number of times is Digital Productions. They, along with Abel Image
Research, have just been bought out by Omnibus Inc. (a canadian firm, I 
believe). The resulting company, Omnibus and Abel Simulations, I've 
already sent a copy of my resume. (Beats me why they didn't keep the
Digital Productions in their name, out of the three of them thats the
one that I know best.)

There was a rumor floating around Siggraph '86 that Gary Demos (and
maybe John Whitney Jr. as well) had left and were planning on starting a
new comapny. Omnibus sort of confirmed this (they didn't deny that he had
left) but weren't willing to tell me how to contact a possible competitor.
If anybody out there in netland has any idea of how these men might be
reached, I am VERY interested in applying to them.

Thanx for all the help so far, and keep those cards and letters coming!
