Eventually maybe I will, see stuff like WHY ARE WE REALLY IN IRAQ and OSAMA THE GUN. There's a great deal of crap on YouTube, including stuff like the Hillary/Big Brother commercial, and I/m looking at it as a new kind of medium. Which also requires learning a lot of new tech, at least for me.

Sorry, the part where i said hi was obviously lost, where I said that you don't need an introduction etc. Personally, I hope you'll talk about books and culture in general. The videos look perfectly fine, I see nothing primitive about them.

[normanspinrad]

Well, I thought I needed an introduction on YouTube, and also to begin learning the video technology with something not very consequential.

[normanspinrad]

I intend to do more of these monologues, and range widely, books, politics, culture, but as I learn the video tech better, more of that too, I've got a cell phone which can record video, which I'm now carrying around, and you never know when you meet a target of opportunity. Also, there's the music video stuff. Check out VOTE FOR ME OR I KILL YOU here on YouTube, and I've been involved with other musical recording which might end up here with home-made videos.

Great vid norman and I agree with your comments on Bush.

Check out the song I made as you used to be a journalist, hope you like - I have posted it as a video response.

Complete moron -- no one cares what you say and your characterization of Bush as "Evil" is rediculous. Get a life.

Hi Norman!

Nice to have you here on YOUTUBE!

I am wondering if you can gave us some opinion on topics like global warming and overpopulation and whether mankind will manage these problems.

I met you in the past at some SciFi conventions in Germany for example in Freudenstadt (FreuCon 1992) and Dortmund (DortCon 200x). I always loved hear you talk. Thank you for experimenting with this new kind of platform!

Bush: "Evil, cynical Machiavellian man" - I LOVE it!!

Thanks so much for "Doomsday Machine" and all your other work.

I think my dad's favorite line of the whole series was, "Don't you think I know that??? There was, but not'n'y more ..."

Yes, please tell us the story of the letter writing campaign that saved the original Star Trek after the 2nd season.

How do you feel about having achieved so much quite early in your life - where did all that come from so early on? How is that supposed to make normal people feel?! I'm going to tell Harlan and his minions that you're here. We briefly talked about The Iron Dream recently, very fondly, and some time before that he mentioned he gave you his jacket which he's wearing on an old photo on his site. BTW, last year I found your Who's Who article, which turned out to be an unexpected pleasure.
