Sorry, but I've never really made 1 good catalog of
all the gems on my tape. (Actually, there's another
VHS tape buried deeply somewhere with video from 9/12
that I've never really gone through, but this is my
recording from 9/11 -- some noon-ish, some 7pm-ish,
and then some late evening until the tape ran out.)

I still don't have a video machine that can handle
long videos, but I decided it would be a good thing
to get this out any way I could, so I did a quick and
dirty on-the-fly hardware compression* of the VHS
tape. It's not as good as a multi-pass compression,
but it's still a usefully good way to share my VHS
tape with others.

My guess is that there are some things here that
practically no one else has seen. (Not to mention
some gems I haven't recognized.) Given how sharp-
eyed some of you are, there's no telling how many
gems it may contain. But this is probably a better
use of one's time than some of the other diversions
that have been making the rounds of 9/11 discussion
lists 2Q05. This video will definitely take you
back... Please share it. (It'll fit on a CD, with
a DivX player, if you compress [ie, ZIP] it.)

It seems to me as though stuff was being blocked
but some stuff was still slipping past the network
censors. While I sometimes just let it record for
10 minutes at a time, at other times I also was busy
watching one channel while recording another, so that
some of the fortuitous channel-changes were not pure
luck.

The operative point is that this gets to the heart
of why I believe this airing of the Naudet video to
be [among] the first: I happened to be watching (but
not recording) Univision when they first tried to
air the Naudet video, and it didn't work! The frame
rate was wrong or something, and it was jerky and
frames got skipped and then it froze, on live TV!

Still, it was enough for me to have recognized that
this was a shot that no one else (CBS, ABC, NBC,
Fox, Univision, Telemundo, another 2-3 UHFs of no
real/independent consequence) had ever shown. So
when they got it to run properly(?) about 2 minutes
later, I was not caught totally off-guard. As you'll
see, the flash frame was impressive, and practically
impossible to miss.

As you'll notice, the Naudet video first aired on
Univision sometime after 10:38 pm MDT on 9/11.
(Note that all the times superimposed on the screen
by the local network affiliates are Mountain Time.)

Having seen everything on this tape on 9/11, I went
to bed that night knowing that "19 guys with boxcutters"
could not account for all the news/dis/info I had seen
and heard that day. (So people who suggest that 9/11
truthers should not pursue and present visual video
evidence of the events of the day can kiss my coax.)

You'll recognize this video as the source of most of
the web-ready video clips you can see and download at
www.911blimp.net

Regards, and best wishes for a Constitutional tomorrow,
