Video Clips

I've just updated this section to include two versions of each video: .wmv and .mpg, which should resolve prior compatibility issues experienced by MAC and Netscape users.

The .mpg files I've added are viewable in Windows Media Player, Real Player, and Quicktime. Those files however are twice the size of their windows media counterparts, which is why I've elected to keep the windows media files as well.

Note: Because .wmv and .mpg use different compressions, there are some slight differences in crispness, etc, but at least now, everyone who can download the files should be able to view one or the other format.
