Thanks! It's nice to be recognized! The Internet is the great leveller for the little guy vs the big guy!

From Briefing: PSINet (PSIX) : If you can't catch a fireworks show this weekend in person, watch the Nation's US fireworks display on the net. PSINet, the ISP that seems to be acquiring local ISPs as fast as they can, is doing a little PR this weekend as they are both sponsoring the event and providing the network services. Ampex (AXC) is producing the "webcast" and you can view it at tvontheweb.com starting at 9:00 PM EST on Sunday, July 4. This particular event isn't really an investing event for today; it won't really do anything for PSIX or AXC right now. But Briefing.com believes that the second generation of the internet, with a complete blending of digital video and audio with all of the great features of the text internet, searching, linking, and open distribution, will be a bigger boom than the first version of the internet. While the next generation internet isn't really in place at all yet, nearly everything is still technically troublesome, it seems clear that the video internet, what we have also called "media" internet, will be even bigger than the text internet, eventually. This particular broadcast, of fireworks and choreographed music, seems as good a place as any to mark the advent of the new era. Fireworks are always kind of hard to capture on TV, should be interesting to see what it looks like over the internet.
