Cool, that's makes 3 people so far in on the project:

Myself, Alex Magidow and Philippe Gibone.  

BTW, my ICQ # is 2797456

Well I suppose I could lead it up, although I'm not sure if I'm the most
qualified....

I'd say either the Desctruction of Atlantis or the Ben Franklin+Lighting
scene.  I think the Atlantis scene would look cooler, but I don't think
we'd have enough time to make the IRTC if we made it very detailed.  So,
my vote's for the Ben Frankline scene (I'm very flexible though).  Bear
in mind, we need to decide what we're doing soon to allow enough time to
make the IRTC (rendering might take a while). Any comments / complaints
/ suggestions about that?

As soon as we decide on an ideak, I could make a very quick rendering of
a scene (like an artist's sketch).  Then we could change it around until
we found a good scene setup, then we could divide it up into different
parts for each person to work on for a few days, then put them together
and have the person w/ the best computer (definately not me) render it. 
Then maybe to some other fine tuning, but I think that's basically the
way I'm thinking it would proceed, anyone have any other suggestions?

Anyone else interested in this project?
Topic choices?
This is gonna be cool!
