    Hello Rox, SCM. . .
    nice to see you're putting the steadicam to immediate use. It also lowers the center of gravity, so the camera steadies itself - much like a tightrope walker with a long pole that lowers the center of gravity under the rope on which s/he walks. So cool. . . the designer is Johnny Chung Lee in the Pittsburgh area. What a guy.

    Speaking of the smarter people in a group - the Army, has even designed a concept called situational leadership. Each situation brings its own set of circumstances and situational factors that some members of a force might understand better than others; those members may not be the organizational leaders of the group, but perhaps a lower ranking member of the unit. In such cases, it is perfectly acceptable for the leader to defer to the experience and judgment of the person with the most understanding and experience in such a predicament. Once again, the Army leads the way in leadership concepts and techniques - Go Army!
    (grin)

    Until that time. . . Earl J.

    @EarlJ - thanks again. :-) And situational leadership? a great example of applied smarts when absolute smarts really don't matter.

    Lots of hanging out with Geeks lately! I build a poor man's steady cam once and it was helpful, but yours looks even better. Got to take a closer look. Thank secret cameraman for allowing himself to be filmed.
