I want to thank all of the people who gave me responses to my question about a Long-Life Battery and Clock. My brother and his artist friend were very pleased. For those who wondered, this is what the artist planed to do (my interpretation): A videotape would be made of time-capsule-y images and sounds and placed in a video system that would activate and play after 100 years. Clearly, there are many technological problems to be faced here, not the least being the degradation of materials. I advanced very general questions because I wanted to see how wide a range of creative answers I could receive, and I was not disappointed. Thank you and Merry Christmas, Douglas Hendricks Know the Seven Warning Signs of Weirdness. Hewlett-Packard See Your Doctor. Santa Clara, CA
