I record videos with my Flip video camera. I download the videos. The file names are VID00001.AVI, VID00002.AVI, etc. Next time I make a video on the Flip, it starts back again at VID00001.AVI. How do I get it to keep on counting up, so I don't end up with multiple files named VID0001.AVI on my computer?

Can you recommend an architect in the Seattle area? I'm hoping to have a second story put on my ranch house, and need professional advice. (I'll also happily take recommendations for contractors.)

Curious why the power is out at your office or the fire engines are rushing past your home? If you live in Seattle,
public911 might be able to tell you.

I want to have some bookshelves made for my living room. Any recommendations for a Seattle-area carpenter or company to do the work? Also, can you identify a furniture style for me (links inside) so I can describe the shelves I want?

I'm searching for a babysitter to look after my two delightful kids, ages 1 1/2 and 5, while I'm in my home office
reading Metafilter working.
The work would be every Monday, plus additional hours as needed and as your schedule permits.
We're in Shoreline, one mile north of Seattle, near I-5. My kids are energetic, funny, get along well with each other, and like babysitters in general. Experience with ADHD is helpful but not vital.

I need someone right away while I work on a project. After March, when our current sitter moves, I'll be looking for a one-day-a-week regular babysitter. The hours are flexible but need to be weekdays, during the day.

I'm looking for a program that will help me tech edit sewing patterns. Specifically, I want to be able to check that the pattern calls for the correct amount of fabric. This involves putting flat shapes together and seeing how big they are when they're combined. (It's all very SAT, with a touch of Tetris.)

How does one say "Merry Christmas" in Bavaria? Is it Fröhliche Weihnachten? Frohe Weihnachten? Something else? I'm looking for the standard phrase people write in Christmas cards.

I'm traveling to Victoria, BC (thanks to
this thread). Are there enough MeFites in Victoria for a meetup? August 29 or 30, held somewhere a clueless tourist could find.

I want to retrofit my early-60's rambler so it's less likely to kill me during an earthquake (and so I can get earthquake insurance). Any recommendations for companies or contractors in the Seattle area?
