You may not think it kayaking related, but most of my videos ARE of kayaking, so: Any advice on how to get my Quicktime running again? It comes up and plays sound, but the video is just a green and orange flashing light! It plays streaming video from the web, but not my MOV. files. I un and reinstalled numerous times, turned off virus detection, installed from both the website and a disk that came with my camera software. No success. All you kayakers frozen in your houses, here something to ponder while you wait for the thaw!

I tried installing QT once, but it insisted on being bundled with iTunes (which I have no need for and do not want), so I just gave up. There are other media players that will show MOV type files. Perhaps I shouldn't reply at all, since I'm actually quite toasty warm in my house and the doors are not frozen either. I went out yesterday for an eye appointment. Pretty much everything that's been left outside is frozen though.... and it's bloody snowing *again*! There was an article in yesterday's paper saying that we are on pace to beat the total record snowfall accumulation set in the 1970-71 winter. I'd say that the white water guys are in for a treat when the spring thaw (finally!) comes. -- Darryl *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).

Not that all w/w paddlers pay attention to dangerous hydraulics, of course, but when rivers that normally carry 15,000 cfs roar along at 45,000 cfs things change dramatically. Every spring there are a few w/w boys who have to be pulled out of the hole that develops in the Spokane River just west of the Idaho/Washington border. In fact, it's become quite the thing to stand on the shore with one's throwing rope at the ready. I don't mind a challenge... but a smackdown is no fun.
