Which is why I tried to get Bill to try the video's at the links I
provided with Flash turned off. It is unnecessary to sign up for
anything at youtube; youtube will notice that Flash is not available &
then check to see if the browser is WebM capable, then the video will
revert to HTML5 WebM (actually it's the WebM media format (VP8 & Vorbis)
that is being used) if the video is available in that format.
