Thank you! I appreciate this; I've heard about RSS, and I understood a little. Didn't bother to really research and learn more about it. Now watching the video, I completely understand it. By the way, do you like dotSUB for their captioned videos? They do a great job, don't they? harkle.com does it, too. They both have to get permission from the producers of the videos and make subtitles. Some places don't let them do it; it's a bummer. FYI, I've been in touch with the Geek Brief podcast, and I'm trying to get them to caption their video podcasts. Right now, I'm not so successful. They'll let me see the transcripts, but that's not the same thing. They're concerned about copyright, I believe. The only thing, I think, they can do is make their own subtitles on their own shows or have it contracted to either dotSUB or harkle.com. One step at a time, right? Wow!!! Thank you!

That's why I made sure that others know that it was Grant that found this video first. I know that its a badge of honor among geeks, if you’re the first to find something and tell others about it.

One man's junk is gold to another. Nevertheless it is settled by Jared. We geeks or nerds are sensitive about these claims. I'm just responding as a comrade in a brotherly way. :) David, I’m sure it’s an oversight. One man’s junk is gold to another. Nevertheless it is settled by Jared.
