Just got words from Barry that the NCOR Inaugural Event video has
finally been placed on-line. For those who were there (or those
who missed it) take a look at:
rtsp://stream.buffalo.edu/shared/research/phismith/NCORInaugural.rm (02)
... apart from the great content that was captured, the quality
of the video is amazing too. (03)
