We investigate the possibility of observing strong interactions of lon
gitudinally polarized weak vector bosons in the process gammagamma -->
ZZ at a photon linear collider. We make use of polarization of the ph
oton beams and cuts on the decay products of the Z bosons to enhance t
he signal relative to the background of transversely polarized ZZ pair
s. We find that the background overwhelms the signal unless there are
strong resonant effects, as for instance from a technicolor analogue o
f the hadronic f2(1270) meson.
