I wonder. Do there exist anywhere, _decent_ quality copies of the Dragoncon
videos? All I seem to have are badly compressed.

The only one I've seen was a bad copy of a bad original from a camera
on a tripod in the corner.

At least I did have the pleasure of being at the '92 DragonCon in
person. When the projector didn't start someone yelled "Is there a
filmaker in the house?"

But just how bad _was_ the orig? Most of my complaint is that someone did a
piss poor job of compressing it. I don't _expect_ it to be pro qual.

*snerk* I wish I coulda been there. It's a bit far for me. At least
Chambananacon's returned to Chambanana. I certainly hope there are more
people this year....last year, I doubt it topped 100. I blame the
Chancellor.
