Re: [californiadisasters] San Francisco on Film: Days Before the 1906 Quake

That video was linked here a few months ago, along with the story of its
recovery and identification. (The identification is a story of its own!)

We had a lot of fun watching and commenting back and forth about that video,
the "drivers" etc.

Anyone who missed it then surely should watch it this time; aside from the
historical significance, it's just fun to watch.

(BTW, the "dolly" speed [movement of the camera] is a very steady 9.5 mph.)
