Yes, it's about the Acron controversy, but if you go about 1:31 into the video, you can see me and my boss walking down the path:

Cool, huh?

How did you manage the screen cap?

VNC it, or find something that made more sense?

VNC didn't do it. If you turn off all hardware acceleration in Windows Media Player, though, it works fine.

The CBS recap does an excellent job of dancing around what was actually said in the article. I can't find a copy of it on the Acorn website, either - although I can guess why.

Does it still exist anywhere? Or was it burned/shredded/formatted out of existence once it became a source of controvery? I'd like to read it and, you know, make up my own mind. :)

Thanks. So is "nizzle" the offensive term that's alluded to in the original article? 'Cause I looked but I couldn't see anything else that would be offensive. Except for cracker and honkey and stuff like that's not exactly something you write a letter about, let alone something that TV news picks up.
