[meteorite-list] Video of Lunar

[Nelson Holcomb]

There are two good players out there that don't foul up your system. VLC 
(http://www.videolan.org/vlc/) and Media Player Classic 
(http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/) are both small programs that don't require 
you to give up all your privacy rights and install a bunch of bloated 
software like those apple products.

I was able to watch the movie without using quicktime, though I do have it 
since I want to use itunes.
