Wind and rain and computer files


The weather network warns of a chance of snow today or tomorrow. The wind was a bit strong, but I think we are taking forecasts a bit too seriously. It's windy. We live in a windy place and sometimes the wind tries to kill us and we need to deal with that. Margaret worked without power for a while today, but the house was fine. I realized that the tapes I've started digitizing are coming in at a lower resolution so I need to start again. However, higher res video creates file sizes that the computer doesn't like, it being a Windows XP machine of a "certain vintage" as they say. I am looking at firewire cards that I'll be able to install in my up to date machine. Looks like there are some.
