Hey Fellow RG people,
I was just notified that the J-675 robot that I took to the First night 
media Event last week, made it to the Daily Texan. I have not seen the 
paper yet but I was told about it from a friend. (If any one happened to 
have one extra, I would like a copy for my archives.thnx). I went online 
and did a search and didn't find any daily texan article, but found this 
one below at the Austinist.com.

Two out of the twelve images displayed show the J-65 robot: 1 image 
showing it playing with a little girl and another with a Clown giving 
him a Blue balloon sword.

Upon showing my robot to many people there and getting interest from new 
fans, I was naturally representing the RG and had answered a couple 
questions about it and the group. The First Night Reps were pleased to 
see a RG member supporting the Media event and they loved the little 
J-65! I had two people ask me where I "Bought" the robot and I explained 
to them that they may be available after I finish the film next year. 
Well, I hated to let them down, they really liked it and everyone I 
talked to had fun watching it entertain the venue, especially the kids:)
