I would love to go to this but I'm somewhere between crap and useless when 
it comes to flash. Is anyone planning to go here and will you be taking 
notes! I'd really like to hear a quick summary of the goings-on for this. 
The particle modelling sounds fascinating; I used to work in hydrodynamics 
and this would be something lovely to do- never had time/too lazy.

I'm a Gina Ford dad (slightly fascist- and this a joke) and 6.30-7.00 is my 
busiest time.

And just a general flash question. I'm looking for something that could 
simulate one of those big screens that it made up of lights. Something like 
the one of Time Square or one of the football screens. Has anyone seen 
anything like this in Flash. It's not really football related. I wanted to 
be able to switch lights on/off and have little animations. I can figure 
out how to do the maths, if necessary, and I could probably do it with 
something like Matlab but that's not readily available to others.
