Brilliant! I will probably never have the time or inclination to attend an
FOCP meeting, but this was great! I felt like I was right there in the
audience. Could have used a little more sex and violence, but otherwise, hey
-- great entertainment!

Our membership meeting this past Wednesday offered a lot of novel and
interesting things. One of them was an idea of mine: rather than
frantically type out the meeting minutes and try to summarize the
meeting for everyone, I decided to try to videotape the meeting and load
it onto Google Video. This would offer a lot of benefits. A record of
the event would be far more accurate than a summary. People who could
not attend the meeting could at least watch it. And, depending on the
technical issues, we may even have a faster turnaround time.

Well, _mirable dictu_, the turnaround time was less than two days this
time. Google Video's just finished processing the nearly-hour-long video
of the second part of the meeting, regarding the Park A reconstruction.
(The first part, about the Party for the Park, will be coming soon.)

Note. This is NOT an especially well-done video. It's all handheld, with
a lot of whipping around to aim the mike at the speaker. And there are a
few glitches. (I'm thinking of borrowing a second camera for future
meetings.) But, for everybody who didn't make it to the meeting, the
video is available at:
