Default "The Enemies Of Reason"-written and presented by Richard Dawkins

Part 1

Part 2


Watch, enjoy, and discuss (or not). For what it's worth, I found it very interesting.

phew! When I was browsing my unread forums, I saw the copyright thread and then that you had replied to this thread; I feared I had fucked up something.

You poor bastard (Aussie affectionate slang, don't take it in the American sense; if you prefer, I can say, "You poor bugger" instead).

Look, usual rule of thumb with YouTube is that it's YouTube's problem, not mine. If you merely embed a YouTube video in a post, all you are doing is merely embedding it; and embedding is only another form of linking.

IOW, you are not hosting the video, and you are not uploading the video onto the Hub server, all you are doing is giving a link. These are the important criteria. So if the YouTube video turns ourt to be a real breach of copyright, it's up to YouTube themselves to take it down, and we don't have to do a thing.

Plus even if I had had to do something, all I likely would have done was edit the post and leave a reason why. I have no idea why people think I am so aggro, I'm not at all aggro, usually, unless you want to count me being Aussie-like as well.

You can let me know if you prefer "You poor bastard" or "You poor bugger". I'm easy.

Bad day for me today, makes me verbose, then terse, then verbose, then terse.

I wasn't thinking banhammer stuff or anything. But it is an interesting documentary and I would have been well, displeased, if I couldn't share it.

Either is fine. I've kind of adopted "bugger"; caught myself saying it when sudden rain made me pray for spectacle wipers. And a roof. With hot food under it.

Thanks for the head up, and no worries, really.
