I hadn't made much of an attempt to explore the depths of YouTube, but since discovering VideoSift it's become easier to find the good stuff. They cull the good stuff--from Google Video as well--and highlight it. RSS it. This is how I discovered such videos as this mad crazy dulcimer guy and this surprisingly affecting acoustic cover of "Hey Ya". Other fave vids (found elsewhere) include this new-to-me Miyazaki short which brought me nearly to tears and this illuminating discussion of Pokemon taxonomy.

I think you cornered me good with "realizing their complicity" and "make amends by taking a stand against what they've until now been a part of."

Heck, that's pretty much verbatim my argument against John Kessel's reading of _Ender's Game_.

Ah. Well, then, we have something else we could argue about, but we may as well save that for another time. :-)

And besides, you now know pretty much exactly how my argument would go...
