Stephen was on the Cause Marketing panel and, knowing that he planned some engaging interactive exercises, I thought it'd be good to capture on digital video. I borrowed a great camera, but had to replace the nearly full Sony DVD-RW discs. Luckily, there was a Best Buy, so I went over at the lunch break. I walked in the door, asked for and received directions. I asked the first blue-shirt I saw for help, and David S. was on the case. He brought me to the right spot and showed me my options: Memorex DVD-RW (older format) or Sony DVD+RW (newer format). The disc in the camera was a Sony DVD-RW. Would the Sony +RW work, or did I need the older -RW, but by Memorex. Failure was not an option, so David said "Let me check to see if we have Sony -RWs in the back." They did, so I did, and you'll be able to see the video as soon as I figure out how to get it off the camera!
