OK being curious I used my "youtube saving" technique as written up in my latest learned tutorial at:-
http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/tutoria...s_tutorial.htm

After using youtube grabber I discovered a newly saved file called:-
YouTube - In Confusion.flv,
which was 6,324,258 bytes
Using the SUPER video conversion all-can-do program I then converted the limited use but highly compressed flv file to the infinitely more user friendly mpg format increasing the size to 14.5MB
and was then able to play it at will in Windows Media Player
I think maybe the entire file is confused
Certainly the erstwhile guitarist/vocalist fighting confused lyrics has a strumming hand that in no way is synchronized with the actual “music”

but all is not lost as amongst the slideshow is this stunning image which must be the ever elusive Jessie-Joe

all in fun mon ami de Nouveau Brunswick
John
But I did not have any real idea what statement the video was making until I saw this near the end:-

tres vite monsieur
If you think about it it is in the context of screenshots from Kilgore's "confused" video
What I would like to know is how did you get into that video in the first place??
or was it all....

and for my final screenshot the last slide in the video

John
With apologies for another religious reference

Very humourous J-J
(re the "young" picture of me that you have since deleted)
FYI I did not take offence...I figured I deserved it for showing a rude picture of you to start with
Meanwhile I was researching this response so here goes regardless
That picture of me in my youth reminded me that there was a fine example of picture manipulation back in 1999 when my alleged UK Lighthead "friend" Brian Walters took a picture of that year's Massey Hall Yellow Canary Canoe Convention tee shirt and put it on a gorilla picture then emailed it o my friends from the early chat room days with this comment
"I have printed a prototype sweatshirt which John
Fowles kindly agreed to model. The picture is located at the following URL
and should give you an idea as to how the garment would actually look
whilst being worn. Thanks John!"
this picture is actually on my Lightfoot page at
http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/lightfoot/


And when I get angry watch out!!
