Wonderful Humor of Ronald Reagan

the youtube player spools it to disk, the hard part is finding it, and reading it, (on windows it's locked IIRC, on linux it's a deleted file)

javascript to pull the url of the file from the web-page is another option, it works with many sites.

another approach is to use packet inspection to get the url

For a good time: install ntp --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: news@netfront.net ---

Then, on the flip side. A friend sent a URL of a youtube 'commercially' made video showing extensive list of 'practical'joke type Candid Camera Style, everything from a satellite falling on the hood of a car, to blackouts in an elevator with a 'bloodied' ghost like little girl appearing! Download took so long I had to bail, and saved more than half. Asked my friend for the rest and he was shocked, because he tried to save it and was NOT allowed to, he thought because it was commercially made.

The RR video comes up differently, fills the whole screen, nothing else. Usually, I get a small insert, selection choices of other videos, etc. Perhaps, there is another URL to the same video.

You seem to throw "facts" around like George Clooney does.

I grew up with "duck and cover" and watching missiles flying at White Sands, troop movements, rocket silos and all the rest.

Thanks to Reagan (and Thatcher), I and my nieces and nephews and their kids dont have to deal with that - at least not from the former USSR. I think a lot of people who lived behind the curtain would not share your view.

I watched him clean up Carter's blundering 4 year mess.

From whitehouse.gov:

"At the end of his administration, the Nation was enjoying its longest recorded period of peacetime prosperity without recession or depression"

"sms" strikes me as a village idiot, on the dole, and "educated" only in a Democrat-staffed madrassa... in other words, a typical college student :-( ...Jim Thompson

That was all before he developed a moral compass, an educated mind and became a republican.

Aha! Nice! I just took the first one I found. Your solution is far better. Thanks! ...Jim Thompson

Any suggestion that he might have developed a moral compass and an education mind is rather confounded by the fact that he became a Republican.

After all, as president, he supervised Oliver North's illegal scheme to sell weapons to Iran to pay for the immoral activities of right-wing terrorists in Central America. Not inconsistent with being management fink and a McCarthyist informer ...

Village idiot, sure. College student? No, there would be hope for him if he were.

Sadly, Carter WAS deemed an incompetent president, even during his adminstration. The democrats tried to recall him to replace him with Kennedy, who rightly would have NOTHING to do with that.

However, Carter IS a good man. He got the Iranian hostages out, all alive, albeit 444 days later. And, some say they were hostages because of him, but they still came back. And best example of all, he HATES/LOATHES/DISPISES Clinton - won't even stand near Clinton in group shots after what Clinton did, which could have gotten him killed during his 'peace' trip to Cuba.

True. Bt, in balance, I did once meet a person who would vehemently disagree with you [who was well groomed, and articulate] He hated Reagan's era. I must add that he was a union member, a member of the Aircraft Controller's Union, too.

LOL! Only because in a few days Reagan would have gotten them out, along with the Ayatollah's head on a pike. Carter had *NOTHING* to do with it.

Well, there you go. That's about as unbiased as you can get!

Yup! The Iranians knew what was coming. Fweeeeeeeeee!! BOOM!

Hell yes. Use your favorite search engine and pick one. Available for MS, Apple and Linux platforms.
