Do you belong to the Pt Lookout POW org?
Awesome! is there any way to save this on my computer?
Yes, although some types of multimedia are tricky to save and methods vary. In this case the file you want is a Shockwave Flash file located at this address: http://media.hamptonroads.com/flash/Howell.swf
Install an older browser program without the Shockwave plugins so that the older browser does not recognize Shockwave -- I used Opera 5.0. Then paste the address above into the browser's URL address line and press the Enter key. Because the older browser does not recognize Shockwave, it will prompt you to save the file to disk instead of runnng it. After you have saved Howell.swf onto your hard drive, then open that file using your current browser in order to play it. You could of course, plug a tape recorder into the computer's audio jack and make an analog recording.
