So I saw that I had my brand new shiny bronze star and I decided to take a plunge into the dead pool to see if I could resurrect a sift. I saw this one:
http://www.videosift.com/video/Al-Gore-and-Ross-Perot-debate-NAFTA-in-1993
and thought it looked interesting.
I found the video on youtube here:

but embedding was disabled. I thought I would be clever and make a publicly available playlist of all the parts and then embed that. Turns out, I'm not that bright. SiftBot accepted it and gave me a star point but the embed doesn't work.
Now I'm looking for someone to take my point away and let me leave quietly in shame.

edit: hmm it looks like MycroftHomlz posted an embed code in that thread also. Maybe that one works.
