Re: [APML] Meteor
Hi again, Jim and Roland:
I tried downloading all three files again and downloads were all pretty fast
via my cable modem---I didn't time them but the largest (1.54 MB) took maybe
40 seconds. They ran fine (Quicktime v3.0). The Quicktime program hung at
the end of the third one, but that's a different problem, I'm sure.
Certainly these movies are amazingly different from the ordinary meteor
watching experience. Must be a very high frame rate to slow it down so much
and leave no trail.
