Cool Video! I bet you have a lot of neat footage!

Thx, Baja! I used five MiniDV tapes in 2-1/2 days. I'm swimming in clips ... it takes forever to slice and dice ...

i can imagine! I just got back from the Seattle Autoshow. I have been going every year since I was a kid in 1988. Such a disapointment, but what can I expect from a show w/ no debuts. At least they had current concepts there. Usually we get 2 or 3 year old concept cars! This year we had the Transformer concept corvette, and the Caddy Converg, Stunning cars.

I was fortunate to be at the Detroit show earlier this year when they pulled the wraps off the Converg. Gorgeous car. Crazy to watch this stuff in person. Hope I get to go again this year, although the thought of flying into Detroit in January is crazy in and of itself. brrrrr

well if you need a cohost in January, let me know! Never been!

Propane tank pressure and copper housing. I hope the truck don't get hit by lightening.
