what happened to the "home" button? I remember when I was stuck in a channel I'd hit home and go back to a non-channel videosift. Can I not do that anymore?

I was trying to display the hypocrisy in his statement about "best schools" and then using a wikipedia quote. I agree that wikipedia is an EXCELLENT place to start research, but only in browsing their sources will you go far enough beyond wikipedia to not get docked points on a paper at the "best schools" or even community college...

Because wikipedia has a bad rap with the more controversial topics, being that they've had problems with articles changing for someone's personal gain, college staff has pretty much ruled out wikipedia as a valid source of information. At my college anyway. All you need for "valid" research is 1 degree beyond wikipedia.

Anybody who has been to an average school let alone the "best" would know that quoting wikipedia as a source of your argument is a NO-NO.


Why? It's about as accurate as any other encyclopedia and certainly more up to date.

Would it have been better if he said the quote was from orwell.ru?

This idea that Wikipedia is useless is ridiculous. Read it with some skepticism, as you should with any encyclopedia, and check the source citations, which may not be an option with a traditional encyclopedia.

try again without the quotes. thanks

I'm watchin' you. You're makin' stuff happen

well unfortunately the n00bs can't promote so they don't see the troubles we endure to put their videos to the front page. Sometimes it's a thankless job.

My pleasure, Mr. Seed. We should teach some of the n00bs how to be so polite. Hardly anybody sends thanks for promoting anymore.

sailor ≠ soldier

I was unaware of any tribal *controversy. It's kind of like a the Philippines, some say it's Asia, some say "Pacific Islands". To tell you the truth, I could care less what they call themselves, it's easier for me to add them to a *british tag (for lack of an *Ireland channel).

Funny you reference wikipedia, because if you go here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Britain

it's a different story...
