Dear Cathy,

Sorry. I just checked and they are working for me. I am not sure why it was
giving you an error. But here are some more links to the Film Salvation
project some in english and some in japanese hopefully at least one will
work. I've also attached a jpeg of the poster of the project.

If you know anyone that may benefit from the services offered by the
project please let them know. I hear that during the rubble removal, people
are able to pull out photo albums to be saved, but I have not heard of
films/videos being saved. I think its common to think these damaged
film/videos are lost cause.
