RE: BSP: Bay Area people may want to check this out

G'day folks,

"Father's video game"? Well, I guess the first arcade video games came
out in the 70's. And we are approcaching the end of the 90's. So
that'd be twenty years and as such a generation.

Now that you mention it, I do have some small ones running around. BUT,
they like my arcade game collection....I guess they have good taste!
(Well, that and at 3 years old, they don't know better....let's see what
they say as 12 or 13, eh?)

ps - Hope I can check out John's latest on one of my upcoming trips to
the Bay Area!
