If the movie does not play in this window, download it (AVI, 2.6Mb) and view with a separate movie player.

If you don't have a movie player that allows fine control over frame advancement and reverse, consider obtaining one. For the Mac and Windows environments, try the free QuickTime viewer from Apple. For Unix systems, try xanim (also free).
