UPDATE: a few of you are still having trouble viewing the video. In an attempt to put this issue to rest once and for all, I propose an experiment. I have encoded the video in a number of formats and I’d like you to test them. Let me know what works and what looks best. Herewith:
I’ve got another video for you, but before you have a look, read the following study guide — it’ll help explain some things.
“getting some soap” — the kids got used to the water by “soaping up” with their favorite colored soap
“come to the creek with us” — the girls have been going to a park with a creek this summer
“kinda jumpin in” — she’s been practicing this a lot lately and really wanted to jump all the way in and go under
“they had, like, a mushroom” — this pool has a fountain shaped like a mushroom, which is the splashing heard on the tape
OK, enough background, click and enjoy. As always, let me know if you have trouble. This one is big (30 mb), so it will take a few minutes to download.

Chris, I can’t get the movie to play, it starts, then stops. I tried to save it to my files and it will not save.
Help! Phyllis

What you described is exactly what it would do if it wasn’t downloaded yet — it would start, then stop. You will see a bar beneath the movie that slowly fills in as the file downloads. It will change from very light to dark gray, like a progress bar. Let that get all the way across the screen, then play it again.
