Hi Tom,

I'm glad to see that at least one other person found some humor in that little video. I spent tons of time putting it together, so I really appreciate your complimentary remarks.

Regards,
Bill

I do not laugh out loud while watching microscope videos. It was just this one time...maybe twice... Honest!!

Rik,

Thanks so much for your comment! It makes my day when even a few people find one of my videos worth watching. The impetus for the paramecium videos (Part 2 will probably be done this weekend) was about 10 seconds of watching a larger paramecium dart back and forth between two smaller ones. As I watched, I thought it would be amusing to make a video about the three of them. I had about 10 minutes of video, 5 with just the two smaller ones, and another 5 with the three of them. I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope you like Part 2 as well.

Regards,
Bill

The movie review might read:

There was a pair o' mecium,
and Bob, he got a piece of 'em.

After I stopped laughing at the video, I sent the link to a professor friend, who replied, "That was awesome!"

Agreed.

Thanks, Chris! Can I quote your movie "review" in the description of Part 2 (which should be ready this weekend)? I'll say I got the quote from "Chris S." if that's OK.

Regards,
Bill
