I am currently in the process of creating the "Doing it Right" web page.  It
is, 
essentially, George's video in HTML format.  I have taken images from the
videotape and made 
JPEG's from them.  The dialogue from the video will be appropriately edited and
flowed with 
the images.  In addition, some of the smaller points will be adressed, and will
include 
detailed diagrams of the harness weaving, O/B discharge, stage bottle
attachment, etc.  I 
will also include a section on equipment recommendations (i.e. makes and
models), and the 
reasons behind these choices.  I am also making an attempt to fill in some of
the gaps in 
the video, including things like open water gear and the correct way to rig
ScubaPro 1sts, 
etc.  If the video of George's seminar on Sunday turns out, that could be
extremely useful.

There are a couple of reasons why it's taking so long:  the video images need
to be edited 
for clarity (i.e. dithering, brightness and contrast changes), some of the
images I'm 
reproducing to get clearer photos, and am using a digital camera to avoid
clarity lost 
through scanning.  I'm also trying to find a server that will accomodate the
number of hits 
expected.

Look for the announcement about the middle of December (I'm also a very busy
person).  Any 
comments or suggestions for the page would be welcomed.
