Did you know that Glasgow has more people with doctorates per capita, and more drunks per square mile, than any place else in Europe, on or off the continent.
I'm surprise the guys didn't spontaneously burst into alcohol fueled flames. (Oooo, pretty blue. [hic {barf}])
That way they can all be stacked like cord-wood for maximum profitability and everybody can travel in maximum safety (for the sake of the airlines' insurance premiums.)
Sleep your way to Duluth or anywhere else for that matter.
That way the sheeple will be ready for Cryo-sleep out to the mines in the asteroid belts, (just like in "Blade Runner," [but without the money wasted on replicants.])

You can easily crank that sucker up to 200KPH, if you're willing to pay the traffic tickets.:-)
Next, he'd be asking that the NASA scientists all be replaced by nubile eighteen year old actresses who do a slow strip while discussing solid-rocket "bustier."

If you are using a clip to illustrate your point and merely using vimeo to host your content, then it IS a manner of first amendment rights.
Since vimeo was merely hosting it, they should be afforded the same protection as the television channels which could have done the same.
First, the distinction between streaming and non-streaming are merely a matter of transmission technique interjecting itself between the emission and the reception of a message. As such, they don't really exist.
Next, the difference between the transmission of a message by shouting it "a qui mieux mieux," or into a microphone (or other recording apparatus,) is specious since the difference is vanishingly small.
because if they can't make this stick, they're going to disappear.
Vimeo is in a perfect position to request that they DO DO.
Copyright infringement is one of those things that can actually rear up and byte the **AAs in the butt.
By claiming first amendment rights on the ENTIRE file, audio and video and written text of the actual content of the file, they can force the issue that the AA's are, in fact, stepping on each others territory and refuse to comply with their requests until the establishment of a proper rights infringement body.
By setting the MPAA lawyers on the RIAA lawyers, Vimeo can ask that the issue of content creation be settled once and for all in a comprehensive manner.
Since the RIAA and the MPAA are not entitled to settle the matter by themselves, they end up effectively negating each others arguments.
Now of course the difficulty of settling all of this means that the litigation will pend for years, and may very well see the establishment of an ÜberAA to oversee the FAIR distribution of royalties, but at least it i the end of the various AAs.
where even the original is content-less, never mind all of the repros and repeats.
There is an awful lot of crap on the tube, in print and in the movies which is just more-of-the-same.
Still, with the internet, the population of the western world and Europe has never been so educated nor have had they has such opportunity to drink so deeply from the fount of knowledge.
I blame "The System" for teaching these unwashed masses to read.:-)
The only reason for not being identifiable is because you're dead. Lets make identifying the remains easier.
The rest is conjecture and lies people tell each other.
Personally, I'd like to have offensive weapons keyed into the biometrics of the person they're meant for so they wouldn't kill me. A smart gun that would only shoot the person its supposed to.
I set up websites for businesses, wikis for schools, blogs for people and I'm doing podcasting and radio production for others.
My clients are looking at the shrinking media landscape, not for somewhere left to advertise, but for traffic.
They have their own web-sites where they feature their products, engage in conversations with customers and potential customers, take orders, track shipments, they're on Twitter and handle complaints that way.
They look at advertising on you site as a secondary, ancillary activity that's a lot tougher than it looks...
People who promise you viral video success on YouTube, or any other platform, hope you're a big enough idiot to believe them, at least until the cheque clears, but not so big an idiot that you couldn't possibly have any money.
Banner ads have such a low click-through rate that they're usually aren't worth the CPM dollars.
While you want earned buzz, (as opposed to paid-for ads, which get you at best ignored, at worst called a liar, and usually not believed,) you usually settle for SEO.
A company selling plumbing supplies or semi-trucks, or guitars, will never get featured on Oprah.
I'm looking for it to go up in [internet] flames in about six months.

Marry this to ComCast (who'll probably try to block all other stations and multimedia sites with traffic shaping,) and we'll probably all sue the FCC to rescind the decision before the next World Series.
Apart from the first amendment it just words on paper.
"People like you are why the founders of this country felt the need for a written Bill of Rights" sounds good until you get to the next century when A.J. Liebling said "The Power of The Press Belongs to Those Who Own One."
We have always had a love/hate relationship with the press.
Its actually just a megaphone rented by an oligopoly to the Global Village Idiot.
Its audience is the advertisers and it merely promises to deliver a certain readership, measured by dubious means, to potentially catch their advertising, wrapped around a fish, lining the bottom of a bird cage or rolled up to hit the dog for shitting on the floor instead of on the newspaper.
NewsPAPERS are dying and for a couple of reasons.
1) Pulping a tree is a stupid, disconnected way to get a message out there.
2) Advertisers are deserting the 1:N communication capabilities of the old media for the N:M communication capabilities of the web.
You, the reader of a paper, or even of a news web site, don't enter into the equation.
The advertisers are disappearing because the web gives them a better ways to do what arboricide or even a news organization's web site can do: advertise their brand and their products in a a quiet, uncluttered space.
Not to mention that they can:
collect customer and potential customer info,
take orders,
follow up on orders,
track shipments,
do post-sale follow-up
do interactive problem resolution.
Tell me again why I would want somebody to slaughter a tree for me.
The internet is winning.
Deal with it.
No I'm NOT trying to revive dead tree edition, but "I'm advocating for consumers paying to use the Post Office's IT infrastructure to get access to RSS files to get access to the publishers' content and for the post office paying for publishers for giving access to that content, regardless of where the consumer and the publisher are."*
Think about it.
The US Post Office is part of an international information distribution network. (What is the internet?)
It has franking privileges (stamps are legal tender.)
It is used to dealing in small amounts.
It is legally entitled to be a common carrier.
It has an IT infrastructure.
It can collect for and grant access to RSS files.
It operates at "arms length" from every government.
instead of the video so we can all see exactly who is asking for this.
It would make an acceptable policy for me and let me know that working for objected to this.
It would let us know who's who exactly and would stop the lawyers from scurrying back under their rocks.

Knowledge is data in some form of context.
Wisdom is the ability to shape these contexts correctly.
This "34 Gigabytes consumed per day" metric is worth nothing except to estimate the size of the pipe required to deliver the bilge.

After that, they can save their money.
I have got a memory. I don't need to see it umpteen more times.
They don't know when to quit, that 's their problem.
They're cutting into my show time, that's my problem and I skip the ads because I can.
