*quality

Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by dystopianfuturetoday.

Someone (me!) should mention that this guy is really funny. It's like one of the Car Talk guys doing an extended riff on corporate politics...

Moving this video to geo321's personal queue. It failed to receive enough votes to get sifted up to the front page within 2 days.

*beg

Sending this video to Beggar's Canyon to plea for a little attention - beg requested by original submitter geo321.
