Thanks, Greg.

The video describes our expedition to a remote Chinese village, a 
serious medical emergency, and how we dealt with it.  It's a story 
about how people handle grave adversity.

Technically, the video was unique in that it was shot, edited, 
composed and projected digitally.  I built the system for broadcast 
purposes, and even with the limitations of the projector I used, the 
clarity was rather impressive.

It terms of presentation, there was an actual story--with beginning, 
middle and end--as opposed to a sequence of pictures.  It had titles, 
credits, transitions, effects.  Technically and content-wise, a video 
like this has never been shown at an NSA convention. 

I will show my video at the Stereo Dinner in Manhattan on July 21 (on 
the monitor that took the tumble.)  There is a slim chance that I will 
also present it at the NYSS meeting on July 25.
