Thanks to all for all the encouragement.

I'm game to do some demos -- but I think the coolest way to do them would
be to just capture me actually doing them while talking and be able to
replay them from the new Squeak WebPages.

This would also help bridge the gap on some of our more embarassing
shortfalls on documentation ...

There's no real need for video when we have a completely controllable
system like Squeak. I think we at Squeak Central have decided this would be
a good thing to do, and you can all expect that some of these demos will
show up as pages in the next (very) few months ...

Cheers,

Alan
