Ironically, this video will not play in school due to filtering issues through the local RBC. This has also proved a nightmare when we have produced video in school. We can upload it to a free video host (currently Google Video), but cannot view the video when we embed it into a website article. As a result we waste time creating a second version that has to be stored locally on our server for "in school viewing".
I was an official mirror of the video.
