    Don't call (617) 426-2000 in order to find out about the SIGGRAPH
    Animation Festival !  They will have no idea what you're talking
    about, because the festival is not directly held by them. This number 
    is for the Boston Park Plaza. The display will be held at the Computer 
    Museum at the address given in the previous message:
    
    Museum Warf
    300 Congress St.
    Boston
    
    In order to find out more information concerning this event, some
    useful numbers are:
    	617-426-2800
    	and
    	617-423-6758

    I think I saw something like this the showing the last time I visited
    the Computer Museum.  It was a collection of computer generated films,
    similar to the "Computer Dreams" TV program, but showing a lot more
    complete animations rather than brief clips.  We didn't have time to
    watch the entire presentation, but it was impressive.  And several of
    the pieces were acknowledged as having been generated by Amigas.
