Geez, you're great. Thank you. BTW, my presentation will largely be on
video. When my kids were small, I adapted Ken Burns' technique of piecing
together stills into a narrative. From the videos I made, Rob and Mike
learned to read before they were two. Lacking sufficient slides for a long
presentation, I figure I'll do a combined slide/video show.

Necessity isn't the mother of invention; desperation is.
