Post

I am trying to enter it, but I have a problem. I just got back to town, and have had very little internet access. I just now got my ticket purchased, and I won't receive it in the mail until next week. I will put the video in the mail tomorrow, air mail, but I have no idea when it will get there, and I think the 4 April deadline is an "in hand" deadline, not a postmark deadline. It looks like, according to their forum, they have very few entries, so maybe Paul will let me slide this one in a little over the deadline. However, the fastest postal option from my USPS post office in Wiesbaden to the Netherlands (by air) still has an estimated delivery time of two weeks. I think they are being conservative, and assuming that nobody is as good as the US postal service (my grandmothers bowel movements are faster and more reliable than the USPS, and she has been dead for three years.) I will probably end up laying out somewhere in the neighborhood of 60 euro to get this video in on time, so I hope they don't disqualify it on the basis of content.
I am very glad that you liked it, and I am honored that you consider it competition of any kind, serious or not.
