i found a link to representation here in NL from philipglass.com, and
i've posed the question to them.  if the worst was certainly a cease
and desist, i'd do it.  i'm afraid of having to pay a fine for every
download, which might be difficult to estimate.

i'm definitely going to try upload to GV when i'm sure about being
able to publish it.  in the summer i watched a bunch of GV, including
a documentary on the WTC controlled demolition.

i plan to start with audio, probably talking about downloadable video
clips.  i'm not sure that i want to appear on screen that frequently..
i'm not Amanda Congdon.  :)  if there were a stream of new animations
coming out, that might be very cool for a podcast, though.
