Technical notes

1. Under "Available Formats," the YouTube links go directly to pages within YouTube.com. These videos are of relatively low resolution but should play in almost any browser. The higher-resolution WMV files can be downloaded and then played using Windows Media Player, a free product from Microsoft that has already been installed on many computers. This may require somewhat more effort and/or computer literacy than the YouTube option. All links work as of December 21st, 2008; please email Greg (trappedinlab@yahoo.com) if you have problems.

2. "Summer Nights '98" and "Still Sleeping?!" were made by Greg for his wife and are password-protected to prevent access by the general public, although our friends and family members are welcome to view them. The username to enter is greg (all lower-case letters), and the password is the nickname of Greg's first childhood baseball hero (again, all lower-case letters). If you need a hint, email Greg at trappedinlab@yahoo.com.

3. In general, an RCA Small Wonder videocamera (a gift from Greg's parents) was used to record footage, and Windows Movie Maker was used to edit it, add captions, etc. We recommend both.
