I have also been seeking to download the trailer.  There was a 
message a few days ago that someone had uploaded it to our Files 
section, but it is NOT there -- I have checked several times.  
Possibly it is too large; I know there is some limit to how much you 
can store; in that case maybe it could be stored in the HP4GUps 
Graphics group? (I am not sure how these things work -- maybe someone 
could clarify?)

Also, someone at some point posted a list of all the sites that had 
the trailer, but I can not seem to find it in the morass of trailer 
posts.  Could that person post that list to the Files section?

As for the BBC Newsround link, you can download the trailer from 
there but it is the RealPlayer version which IMHO is very poor 
quality.  If anyone could tell me where to download the Quicktime or 
Windows Media version, I would give their House 50 points.  Or better 
yet, upload it to somewhere accessible to the group.

And I would like to make a request, actually a plea to the Shippers.  
There have been an awful lot of shipping posts lately, MANY of which 
did NOT have the word *SHIP* in the Subject Header.  Please remember 
that some of us get seasick when we accidently stumble aboard your 
incessently rocking boats.  Check those Subject Headings!  (And no, I 
am not just saying that in the hopes that the Moderators will make me 
a Prefect.)

I also second the motion for a second place poll for the logo, which 
would enable us to determine the winner in the event of a tie, or of 
any voting irregularities in, say, Florida.  (I will now stand in the 
corner for 15 minutes wearing a duncecap which says *I made an 
election joke*.)  Seriously, though, I was also torn between numbers 
7 and 10 and would like at opportunity to vote for a 2nd choice.

OK, I will stop here as I am obviously being a grumpy little witch 
today.
