Default Two surge protectors?

I was wondering if any of you thought it would be recommended to put two surge protectors into a regular two-plug outlet. I already have one that plugs in all of my PC components to, but I need another so I can plug in some more devices. So, would it be ok to plug in another surge protector to the extra outlet? Would it create too much current? I'm not so sure... Anyone?

That's a "school project" all in itself!

I made the camera guy rotate the position of the camera on a imaginary circle for each shot, it got to a point that he got tired of unplugging everything to set the next shot up usually I would make him adjust the camera to a 180 rotation of position.

I did this to cover up any inconsistencies in position for each shot, it usually seems natural for the viewer to see the camera do this and the viewer is less likely to be jared by a inconsistency...

The position of the camera never ever was every considered for what the camera man wanted, since I was the director and just had a j6p filming on a tripod.

J6P does not understand why a person would want to move the camera as often as I did for such a short set of talking sequences..

Truth be told I just have short memory so I had to keep the sequences short and im a control freak.
