<p>I know I am a neanderthal from another century, but I have recently discovered and accessed You Tube.</p>

<p>I can’t get over the old music clips. I was even able to view a clip of Phil Ochs singing “We aren’t marching anymore.”</p>

<p>Amazing stuff.</p>

<p>If anyone has any helpful hints on using You Tube, please enlighten me. Obviously I am a neophyte and just wandering around.</p>

<p>The funniest thing on youtube is the complete WKRP Thanksgiving episode. “As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly”. Just search for “WKRP”. I’ve also found a lot of the old video clips from groups before there were videos – American Bandstand, Midnight Special, Don Kirshner’s Rock Concert, Top of the Pops, and a truly hideous amateur show in NYC that has a great clip of Faces performing “Stay With Me” and “I’m Losing You”. Who recorded all this stuff? Who kept it? I am constantly amazed at what is out there being uploaded :)</p>

<p>you can listen to the guy argue with Verizon people over the phone for 20 minutes trying to explain to them the difference between $.002 (what he was charged per kilobyte) and .002 cents (what he was quoted as the rate, and they continue to quote as the rate all through the call).</p>

<p>It is quite amazing the lack of understanding some people have for simple concepts.</p>

<p>And as far as music that should never be heard:

(someone trying to play Final Countdown… sounds fine until they start singing, lol)</p>
