An occasional local visitor. He was friends with David Cope and George Winston:

How do you embed a YouTube vid? None of the instructions that I find seem to work. Thanks.

Here's how I do it

Start the Youtube clip in another window and "copy the video URL"

Paste that on the forum page - it looks something like this

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diP-o_Jx ... detailpage

Delete everything up to and including the v=

Delete the & sign and anything that follows. Not all video URLs have '&feature' etc on them; some would just end at the 'sA' in the above example and need no further deletion.

You end up with something like this:

diP-o_JxysA

Highlight it (as you would for a Quote or Image or URL) and hit the 'youtube' option

You get this

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

You can also hoover your mouse pointer over the youtube link in the reply section and it provides instruction...
Sometimes it seems as though one has to cross the line just to figger out where it is

Back in the day (70's early 80's) I was a fan of The Good Rats. Local Long Island band. Took my housemates to a show they did when I was up in Buffalo. They fell for them also.
They might be on youtube but I can't get there to look.

I just discovered The Black Keys this year, with the El Camino album. Really good stuff.

Pop is pop. It comes and goes. Leaves no residue.

One can always count on rubato to add a useless comment to subjects he has absolutely no clue about...

The band I will be seeing in Sydney Opera House in January...



Rubato fails to realise that very little of what has been posted here is "pop".

Could't agree more! It's not like anyone still remembers say... The Beatles, Elvis, Michael Jackson, etc.

No residue whatsoever!
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

There's this and there's that.

Some can tell the difference.

Not you. Too bad.

You actually don't know what you look like, do you?

Well if you live in an echo chamber that is the danger isn't it?


Too funny.
