I apologize for not being more clear of my intentions for this discussion. What would I do in a fire? Well as I picture it, I would kick down a wall and waltz out juggling a baby, two old grannies (and their walkers) and an old hound dog. The building (now safely emptied) would crumble behind me. I'd then be greeted by cheering firepeople (women can be firepeople too, y'know!) and showered with rose petals. I'd also get the key to the city.
But that's just what I'd do in case of fire. Do I care what you would do? No, not really. I mean, I hope you don't burn of course, 'cause that's terrible.
No conditions at all - obviously you are incapable of panic and will keep a cool head in any situation that presents itself and regardless of what other people around you are doing. You are the pinnacle of grace under fire and I salute you, good sir!
Hey, if I've learned anything from politics it's that only one person can be right - and the other person is the spawn of Satan himself. I know I'm not the spawn of Satan, so who does that leave?
Hatta: Spawn of Satan? Only he and Satan know the answer.
What we teach is based on the thousands of years of knowledge that man has accumulated. At least when it comes to science, the only scientific "truth" we have are the methods in which we ground our science - which is a pretty damn phenomenal accomplishment. I know when I was in school, we were taught those methods and the ways they were applied.
Or were you talking social studies and history? Fair enough, there are enough half-truths taught there, but I was still taught that Americans don't always choose the right course of action.
No, *you're* too generous. These people are shocked that evolution is in the curriculum because that reaction is more likely to get them re-elected by their backwards hillbilly constituency.
Though it takes a lot longer to say "change station to 97.1" than it does to hit the "3" preset on the console. I think all this gadgetry really are solutions looking for problems. All this discussion of touch screens and voice commands - how long before it comes full circle and some plucky engineer in the back of the room says "Hey! Let's just put a knob in for the volume and a couple of buttons for presets!"
What are you talking about? The Jedi are *totally* a religious cult looking to uphold old *hereditary* government structures. The Empire is all about redistribution and homogenization of social structures. Hell, their entire military is made of clones! Left-wing love fest if I've ever heard of it.
No doubt the fire trucks were standing by a safe distance away, that 8 minute delay was so the operators could analyze the fire and ensure there weren't any follow-on explosions that could harm the firefights. The explosions at 1:58 and 6:27 are *exactly* why they won't start spraying on it immediately. Better to let the craft burn off its flammables safely on the pad and away from people than to send firefighters in to spray down an already burning bomb.
Damn, our local guns and guitar shop is just called "bizarre guitar." Your names are way better.
But, would sounds and rounds have a TV commercial with a guy busting out a wicked guitar riff while two hot chicks pose behind him with assault rifles? I think NOT!
It's their business and they certainly are allowed to take down videos willy nilly. Liability only applies if there was a breach in contract, which I think there would be a very hard case to prove. However, they absolutely should get bad press for it - there are video hosting competitors. It's not like this is a local utility or ISP where you don't have options. Enough bad press and loss of business to competitors will cause them to rethink their policies.
The point isn't to make somebody afraid to post a claim to protect their property - the point is to get rid of the automatic claiming systems and cut back the false positives.

Utterly tenacious! I haven't seen this level of effort since The Great MyCleanPC Caper of June!
Man, you're taking this trolling effort to pretty extreme levels...
Hey, I never said it was right - just that it wasn't illegal.

Insightful... or jaded.

Obviously it's a conspiracy at the highest levels to increase the sales of tin foil to be used in hat making.
Next question, please?

Nothing in the linked post says he doesn't listen to audiobooks at work....

I figured that bit out, still your powers of mod reception are astounding!
The use that the vast majority of bullets end up going to: targets at a range.
Just because it's not fun for you (or even me) doesn't mean it's not fun for other people.
Oh man, you haven't *lived* until you've done battle with a seran-wrapped pork loin!
What?! You're giving up on an argument? On the internet!!!?!
Score: 3, Insightful

"We haven't used any of these old tapes for a while but we don't have permission to wipe them and clear out this warehouse, who can we ask?"
Sounds like the most apparent reason to me...

I think you need to add a few layers to your tinfoil hat...
I suspect it is not an actual "DMCA notice," it's simply a notice of infringement which YouTube is voluntarily responding to.
