For all new IRIS graphics programmers -

I took both the Graphics I and Advanced Graphics courses at the
Mountain View facility and would rate them among the best training
courses I have taken.  The Graphics I course is a *very* good intro to
3D graphics for those of you who have had little or no previous
experience with 3D (I would rate it as a 9.0 on the 1-10 scale; of
course, I learned 3D from Jim Blinn at Caltech [10+] - all things *are*
relative!).  The facilities were excellent, the instructers were
extremely competent and helpful (Carolyn, Linda, and, of course,
Mason!), and the food was pretty good.  Only black mark I could come
up with was that the room was either too cold or too warm!

Now, if only the Hotline was as good...
