Hi Janice and everyone At last, I was able to see the tv clip while at a highspeed pc connection - there was background noise (in the room) and I didn't hear it well; the production itself is excellent, and yes it takes that long to get a short bit of good viewing, with all the camera work. I was impressed that in the brief time 'lace' got such good coverage with several frames of historical lace, then a variety of views of lacemaking - closeup, hands-on, shots of the lacemaker entering the room to start work at the pillow, and views of the lacemaker at work, and in conversation with Porterfield (who was, except for one frame, off-camera).I saw the missed pin! but only because you mentioned it - and it didn't matter. The lacemaking part segued directly to the talking head reading the convention announcement (which I didn't hear at all, tsk). In the brief time you had, whatever you said as you made the lace was fine, to the non-lacer - if you had said 'close the pin with a stitch' - I wonder what the average viewer would have imagined :p So 2 times some millions of viewers (was Oprah watching?) divided by 60 - that should cover your demonstration hours for a long time ;)
