Hi All

How big is that file to download? Should I bother trying with dialup, or better to wait until I have a high speed connection?

I never tried downloading from You Tube - is it possible? Click on the link and try playing it. It is only 51 seconds long, so it should not put too much of a strain on your dial-up.
Title: Another video clip from the WPA, not quite Military

I tried finding video clips that were used on CBS Sunday Morning on April 8, 2007. In their ALMANAC, they covered the establishment of the WPA, and there was a nice shot of a Cletrac model W (I believe) doing some dam work. If anyone TiVo'd that program, maybe they can clip it from there for us.
