[ale] OT sort of: youtube search results in Linux

[Scott Plante]

Weird. I just tried it on Linux and it worked fine. Did you go back and try it on Linux after it worked on Windows? Perhaps it was a short-term blip rather than a OS based difference.

OK, so there is a bit of irony here for you, I will let you find it: 

In-law posted a vid of "stupid Romney supporters" who were interviewed. 
Now we all know there are stupid "insert name" supporters for 
everybody. So I went to youtube and searched for "stupid Obama 
supporters" with the intent of posting back a good nature retort. 

Not one of the "stupid Obama supporters" videos worked. 

All of the "stupid Romney supporters" videos, that I searched for to 
troubleshoot, worked. 

This bothered me greatly. Youtube is not the government, they can 
censor anything they like, but it bothered me. 

I booted into windows and now the "Stupid Obama supporters" videos all 
worked! Phew no censors. 

No explanation. No moralizing, and I am sure you can see irony. 

On a separate issue, I searched for Mossberg ar15 in Google and only 
found parts to buy, search for it in bing (shudder) and I get links to 
business selling Mossberg ar15s. Not sure what is going on there yet. 

Discus.
