The first time I ran my new montage of Clay Aiken's Solitaire on YouTube it buffered like crazy--until I switched to HQ view, then it ran smooth as silk. Usually if a video is buffering a page refresh fixes it. The large version of it was accidentally uploaded, rather than the smaller one, no wonder it took so long uploading. Guess I can't see to straight so late at night. LOL.
I know Clay's Solitaire has been used hundreds of times for montages--but not by me, until now.

A True Classic story
"As geese flap their wings, they create an uplift for the bird following. By flying together in a V formation the flocks flying range is 71% greater than if any of the birds flew alone.
When we share a common discipline and a sense of community we can get where we are going more quickly and easily because we are travelling on the energy of one another.
Whenever a goose falls out of formation it suddenly finds the drag and resistance of trying to fly alone and quickly gets back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the birds in front.
When we have as much sense as geese, we will stay in formation with those who are headed where we want to go, we will be willing to accept their help as well as give ours to others.
The geese in formation honk to encourage those up front to keep their speed. When the lead goose gets tired, it rotates back into formation and another goose flies at the point position.
When we take turns doing the hard tasks, when we encourage others, we become stronger through shared leadership.
When a goose gets sick or wounded, two geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help and protect it. They stay with it until it is able to fly again or dies. They then launch out on their own to find another formation or to catch up with the flock. When we have learned the value of teamwork, we too will stand by each other in challenging them. Let us fly in formation and remember to drop back to help those who need it."
"There is no limit to what can be accomplished when no cares who gets the credit."
