For you OC types (I'm including myself) who love charts -- I've just completed a Periodic Table of Contra (using all of the real atomic symbols -- Californium is California Twirl, of course, but the others aren't as obvious), in poster size (18 x 24), full color. Just the thing to confound your fellow geeks and decorate your cubicle. A pdf will be available soon on the FootFall Dance Weekend site -- profits will go to a scholarship fund for young impecunious dancers. If you'd like to see the pdf, email me at hgrastorf(at)aol.com and I'll send it along. If you're going to the Pittsburgh Dance Weekend or Butterball, I'll have a supply of posters (and rubber bands so they stay clean) with me.
