CAT Tracks for February 10, 2009
LET SLEEPING CATs LIE

The following PowerPoint Show documents the results of an interview conducted this morning with a typical "CAT on the Street".

The editor of CAT Tracks was curious as to the hopes and expectations of the membership as tonight's mediation session approaches.

Hopefully your computer has the capability to view PowerPoint Shows. If you do not know, you will soon find out...when you click the "access the interview" link at the bottom of this post. (If you do not have PowerPoint capability, you can download a free PowerPoint Viewer directly from Microsoft.)

Be sure to TURN UP YOUR SPEAKERS...absolutely essential in order to hear the interview.

Editor's Note: Okay, ran into some "technical difficulties". Instead of the link launching the "show", it launches Microsoft PowerPoint in "edit mode"...bummer.

Did some research on "fixes"...waaaaay too technical.

So...

When you click on the link below:

  • "Open" the file (if that prompt screen appears.)

  • Across the top of the "editing screen" that you just opened, you will see tabs like Home, Insert, Design, Animations, Slide Show...whatever. Click "Slide Show" tab.

  • On the far left at the top, you should see a "Play Icon" as you have probably seen before...a right-pointing triangle. In Office 2007, it gives you the choice to play "From Beginning" or "From Slide". Click to play "From Beginning".

That should do it - IF you have Microsoft PowerPoint installed on your computer.

The best laid plans of CATs and men...

If you are ready, access the interview...


Whew...guess you wish I had stayed away longer!!!

Next time, PROMISE...just a straight-forward, simple CAT Tracks (although if the link above worked for you, I believe you will admit...it was darn well worth it! Infectious, even!!!)
