Could you possibly watch and record Hardfire tonight at 10:30 PM

EDT.
http://www.geocities.com/HardfireTV/ Channel 2 The reason is my
daughter Sandra appears briefly on the Internet show and I do not

want
to miss her. I still have not gotten the WMR Recorder working

right.

I have my video-recorder standbye, Sam.

You will not be sorry you looked. The show should be very interesting,
especially over in Europe. On the show, my daughter is interviewed
briefly by a convincing imitation of George W. Bush.

I don't blame you for wanting the tape. When my daughter was 5, she
was on a Nickolodean Gas (Nick GAS) show saying something like:
"Hello, my name is Cassi. I'm 5 years old, and I've been playing chess
for 6 years." Fortunately, I had good connections at Nick and they
sent me two professionally done copies of the broadcast. 6 years
later, it still embarasses her if someone mentions what she said.

Thank you for your comments.

Fortunately, it turns out that all is not lost. Gary Popkin called me
and explained that he did put the close-up of my daughter in the show.
It appeared in the TV version but in the Internet version of the same
show the screen just went completely black.

Gary Popkin has a theory as to why this strange result occured. In the
close-up of my daughter, he tried to edit out the people on the edges
of the screen. This was successful in the TV version but not in the
Internet version, he believes.

I spoke to the IT expert at BCAT this morning. He is a Russian named
Alex. He says that a technician who worked there on Friday evening had
plugged a plug into the wrong socket. When I called the station on
Saturday morning to complain that the Internet was not working, Alex
found the problem right away and corrected it before my show came on.

Alex says that right now BCAT has a capacity of only 100 high-speed
access viewers on the Internet at the same time. He says that they have
never had more than one hundred viewers at once. I told him that I have
15,000 visitors per day on my website and some of them are bound to
watch the show. I do not know what happens if more than one hundred try
to log in at the same time.

Leshaun Fossett has discovered that you can see my baby Sandra by
playing the streaming video from the TV show on a different program
called Winamp.

Winamp can be downloaded at
http://www.winamp.com/player/bundle.php

Playing the same video there my daughter appears but on a small sized
screen. I just played the original and my daughter appears on a full
sized screen.

So, the mystery continues.

"Sam Sloan" Playing the same video there my daughter appears but on a

full sized screen.

Jesus, who cares? You are such a pain in the ass that if I ever accidentally
took a photo of you or your family I would throw away the camera just to
avoid having to answer the 500 questions that you would be asking about it.
