	The mailing list became defunct very recently.  Dave Long sent
a letter to everyone on the mailing list, saying that since there hasn't
been any articles coming in for a long time, he was terminating the
mailing list.  Many of the paths on the list do not reach existing users
now.

	When I say (when most people on sf-lovers say) Japanese animation,
I usually mean Japanese animation such as those found in movies and TV,
mostly for entertainment.  I hadn't thought of any technical discussion
on computer graphics/animation.  That's an entirely new realm altogether.

	Anyway, thanks for the interest and questions!  At least someone
is reading Usenet! :-)
