サラのメモ：
My first attempt at an faq video. Just me talking to the camera, so this may bore you to tears. Or you might find it interesting if I answer a question you were wondering about.
I didn't write answers first -- just talked to the camera, then cut it up. I didn't express my thoughts especially well ... but, well, if I waited until I could find the right words I'd probably never finish this video.
I'm going to make another faq video sometime -- so please ask if there's something you want me to talk more about or you have a question that I didn't address.
It was so long that I had to render it to a lower quality version to make it less than 100MB - so my face is a bit fuzzy I think.
