Full Slide Show
The second is a zip file that contains the full slide show (39 slides) and everything you need to view it.  You do not need the Powerpoint program to view this one.  It contains a viewer program.  You will need to unzip the file of course.  If you have a CD burner I recommend unzipping it to a CD so you can easily store it and take it with you.
