Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Hot off the scanner, Bionic Beach Bash Party pic links



Thanks Lew

 I just had to get them up, I'll be doing all the cropping and post them in a more
web friendly 72dpi with thumbnails on the BionicDolphin website in a few days.

 I was just standing in the chase boat and having Rob and Dan (my apprentices)
do their thing around me. The video we shot is even better than the stills.
Once we get that converted to digital I'll post Quicktime clips on the site as well.
