"Did you know"

[Edward]

This was sent to me. Hope this is the right place to post this.

It opens in windows media player, I dont know if it will work on a mac.

It's pretty amazing if the facts are even close to accurate.

That was cool. As said previously, if accurate, it's mind boggleing.

Lots of info there. Hard to absorb it all. With all the research and development going on and advancements being made it's tough to comprehend why the world is in a bit of a financial straight right now.

Thanks Edward. Good find.

Edward: I have tried several different days to view the link you gave but have not been able to do so. My Windows Media Player comes up and then states that the server won't let me in? Any ideas?

ya-ya, I got the same message..I just clicked "Launch Application" and it worked.

[Edward]

..or right click and copy the shortcut in the link; then open windows media player, click File, then Open URL and paste it in that?

Thanks Ken and Edward:

Ken... my message was different than yours. You guys got me to thinking (danger...danger) and I went to ZoneAlarm firewall and found that I had blocked Media Player from acting as a server etc. Thanks for the help guys!

That was awesome and very humbling at the same time. I now clearly see that a ya-ya is about as significant in this world as a flea on the belly of a wildebeest about to attempt a crossing of the alligator infested waters of the Masai Mara River in Kenya. Not exactly front page news! Seriously; the video was cool and shows very clearly what has been suspected about America for quite a while. And that would be, if we don’t step up to the plate with more personal work ethic principles and educational accountability, then we are going to most certainly be fodder for a future novel called “The Rise and Fall of the American Empire.”

Yea, I feel kinda "obsolete" after watching that.
