Hi John.

Thanks for heads up. I saw the Google option in my "travels" looking
for a $ effective solution to posting my fetid little dash video for
other Vanagon owners to see. Same sort of idea as Pando application,
which has worked well for me.

Along with using Pando, I have set up  a personal web server here at
home. (making good use of an old iMac) I can post my files there and
P-mail people the address when requested. In theory the amount of
bandwidth my ISP provides, won't be exceeded. (As was quickly the case
with my basic .Mac account) As long as there aren't too many users
accessing it at one time, it should work out. Anyhow.....

Hope you're doing well re: car accident. Good to know van will be ok.
And FWIW, I don't regret getting massage therapy/chiropractic after my
accident.

Cheers,

Neil.
