 Hi Jeri and anyone else who is interested:
 
 The format used in the UK and many other countries is called "PAL", not 
 "VHS". The acronyms PAL and NTSC refer to the resolution of how your 
 television set displays images:
 
 PAL stands for "phase alternating line" or "phase alternation by line" 
 depending on whose definition you look at.
 NTSC stands for "National Television Standards Committee" and is the 
 standard in the USA and Canada.
 VHS stands for "video home system".
 
 VHS tapes can be in both PAL and NTSC formats.

Dear Adele,

Thank you for clarifying.  I took the reference directly from the 2003 
Fountain catalog, which says "All videos are in VHS format."  Sorry for the 
confusion.
