Thanks for the response.  It looks like you were able to download the
video and then play it locally, yes?  If so, how did you do that?  And
are you able to play the embedded video also?  All I get when clicking
on the MPEG movie is a warning that I don't have the xmovie plugin
installed.  I did go to the herroinewarrior site and got the latest
xmovie binary as suggested and then repeated the exercise but that
didn't make any difference either.  When I click on the QT link, all I
get is a black box with no movie.

Rats.
