Hi All,
	
Thank you for many response to my previous posting about the Robot
Sumo Tournament held once a year here in Japan.  I introduced a video
tape I got from the sponsor.  The tape contains 60 min. program of the
4th All Japan Robot Sumo Tournament held last year.  The program has
been made by Japanese major TV station and broadcasted nation wide in
March.

I'm now in the process of copying tapes.  Probably, tapes will be
ready for shipping in a week.  Only terms you should accept are;


1. Please let me know your name and address where you can receive a
   copy of tape sent by airmail.

2. The program is Japanese, no English caption.  There lot of unique
   robots appear in the program, I believe you can enjoy it even you
   cannot understand what they said.

3. The tape is VHS NTSC format.  People in the U.S., Canada, and some
   other area can watch the program without problem.  But, people in
   Europe need some machine to translate the format to PAL.  I'm sorry
   for those people but I don't have the machine.

4. This is an project without profit.  We are based on the spirits of
   amateur hobbiest.  You may not charge and be charged with any kind
   of copy of this tape.


Any way, I don't care about cost I spent with this project, but if you
could provide some information about your robot project, I appreciate
to see that.

Thanks again, I'm looking forward to see your e-mail.
