  • Paul, if there was a way you could make it possible to subscribe to the group's videos, or for emails to be sent out whenever there's a new video added, it would be really helpful. Do you think this could be done?

  • I'll have a look into it, but it seems that YouTube has not given groups much of a priority.

    It seems "Groups" were initially conceived of as being like television channels or newspapers. The owner of the Group is like an editor who decides what to include or exclude in order to please/reach his target audience. I suspect that they have had difficulty finding a revenue-generation model for groups and that promoting them might reduce subscriptions and, thereby, ad revenues. (???)

  • Looks like a really long commute.

  • It's about 40 minutes each way, but it usually feels too short, actually.  I often use the time to listen to an audiobook.

  • Stan Rodgers - Northwest Passage.

    Folk singer from Hamilton, Ontario. My home town.

  • I love Canada. Such an expansive, beautiful country. I do feel proud to live here.

    Wonderful video, Paul. Keep making videos I enjoy them thoroughly!

  • For the Reason's Harvest T-Shirt, you could set up a cafepress store to sell shirts and other stuff with the design.

  • Yea, i was totally tied up on my own assumption/interpretation of the language rather than the meaning. i.e. i checked one of my premises and one was wrong.

  • A while back, I googled and found a few of the very same recordings Ayn Rand held most dear (amongst her tiddly winkers). They're probably still available. I'll have a look.

  • A video on how to argue for capitalism, now that's a good idea! I certainly could use some extra ammunition.

  • "Thank you." said Galt.

    "I will repeat what you said to me in our first meeting", replied Hank. "If you know that I acted in my own self-interest, you know that the thanks isn't necessary."

    "And I will repeat your response to me," said Galt. "That, is why I thank you."

    (HankRearden:JohnGalt*Gratitud­eInGalt'sGulchRescues*)

  • (! Sure !)

    P.I. Tchaikovsky and Sergei Rachmaninoff would be à propos and pertinent.

    ...and "Tiddly Wink Music" if you can find any.

  • moo moo, i found an explanation
