    Default Bill Stone online video

    Interesting video on google video called-
    “Journey to the Center of the Earth.”
    Link- http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...0&q=bill+stone

    It is over an hour long and covers a few topics to include cave diving, sump diving and other items- I have not watched the whole darn thing, yet.

    Enjoy everyone

    Best Regards , Andrew

    I finished watching it. Good presentation. Interesting.

    But he can keep his damn "meter" this and "kilometer" that crap. It's all greek to me and kept me from really appreciating the distances he was talking about.

    It is good but I have not watched it all yet either. Is there anyway to store a local copy so that I can view it offline rather than at "work"?

    Duncan,
    A while back Google was having terrible problems with ownership rights and ‘right’ to use materials. The massive copyright debate flowing over from colleges.

    So to my understanding you have to watch the video online or download the 'Google Media Player .exe' to play the file at home.

    If you wanted to watch this at home at your leisure I would download the media player .exe file (install file) first without installing it and then download the Bill stone video. (basically saving both files.)

    Then at home install the player on your machine and then dump the video to some place where you can select it from to play.
    Otherwise you are looking at downloading this beast at home.

    This is were new media jump drives are coming into a world of their own. Who ever thought I could carry around a 1Gig jump drive in my pocket or carry around a cigar size case that holds some 30 gig. Wow…

    Duncan- have you seen the new PPo2 gauge from Tecme?
    http://www.tecme.de/frame_eq1.htm Awesome!

    Best Regards, Andrew

    You can save the file. Click on the link, when it tries to play it, pause it, then click the "download" button at the right of the screen. Gives you an AVI file if you select Windows/Mac.

    Cheers,

    Sir, with all respect given...

    Per google-
    Why do I need to be connected to the Internet to view copy-protected videos?

    Copy-protected videos are encrypted files. To decrypt these files and allow you to view the video's content, the Google Video Player needs to communicate with Google over an active Internet connection.

    Also-
    If a Download button appears, you can download the video to your computer for free. (If you're running Windows, you must also download the Google Video Player.)

    Best Regards, Andrew

    Thanks all for your replies. I have now found time to watch it all the way through anyway. I think I understand Bill's comment about the "Mk6" and would hazard a guess that its going to look a bit like the RS2000.

    The ppO2 guages look interesting. I can get single cell units for $200 here - though I rather fancy the revodream unit. Have made some mods to the D5 so its much better and have rebuilt my pendulum unit for mixed gas operations. I'll post details on RBW when I'm ready.

    Doug,

    You have too much time on your hands to know all this.

    By the way, just got the book and want to pass on a huge thanks.

    Indeed I do I figured that book would be much more useful to you.From the looks of it ,diving may be out for good so I would rather give things to people who will put them to good use.

    PS I am still coming down,just have to finish up court etc.Would you go as far as Palenque?

    Hijack over



    Great video BTW
