Great to see Mario full-on, even revealing some of his production specials. Love these embellished favorites!

Re: Have You Ever Had To “UNFRIEND” Someone?

jimmulrony — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 14:43:20 -0000

Loved that English teacher. "Unfriend" being the word of the year really reflects the incredible invasion of the language (and indeed culture) by technology. Was last year's verb "to Google"?? Great vid. ( Lavender is your color, Amanda....soft, beautiful, yet somewhat uncommon.)

It's kind of like watching out-takes to hear the back story on these episodes. That reverse demolition of the building is brilliant. Fun, folks.

That was very moving. Very cohesive and effective.

oral history is so meaningful...especially recorded. love those old "taped" interviews with appalachian musicians in the 30's. and one's own family... priceless.

I've encountered spirals before...at the boulder's resort in Arizona, for one. Now I know a process for walking it. very, very interesting.

Re: Telemedicine? Tele Me More

This truly is amazing. great job on the piece, sd crew. the episode really captured the phenomenon of feeling like you're in the same room physically while using telepresence. Strong technology to be sure.

Re: The Future of Communication Is Lifesize & HD

jimmulrony — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 21:38:00 -0000

That was unbelievable. Really. " tele-presence" makes it feel like you're in a conference room together...has a lot more stature than your basic Skype. I'm sure there will be a great future there. And you're right...the important people will sit in the front.

Re: Do you believe in the power of positive thinking?

jimmulrony — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 17:23:29 -0000

"the power of the tongue"...so true. I work in a large group of people. All it takes is one negative tongue flapping at will to poision the well. luckily, we've all worked together so long, we kind of see it coming, which mitigates the damage.

I do believe that thought is a force which radiates both inward and away from the thinker, with considerable influence in both directions..

Re: Can’t Motorists & Cyclists Just Get Along?

jimmulrony — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:47:34 -0000

I feel homeowner's rage every time a pack of unspeakably loud motorcycles roar past my house on a beautiful day. Honestly, it's deafening, and completely unnecessary for motorcycles to be that loud. There was an argument promulgated by motorcyclists that the noise is for their personal safety. From what I've read on the subject, I'm pretty sure the noise is for their personal enjoyment, all the while ruining the peaceful enjoyment of residents along the way (and miles in every direction!).

Oh, ruffling some feathers, I see. Always like that.

Re: Butler Butts In On 1st Amendment – Internet Justice

jimmulrony — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:41:18 -0000

wooh...sounds like the U is the bully in this case. Perhaps the students at Butler can turn the table by supporting the blogger at the on-campus trial. That would be a great opportunity.

Sweet today, Amanda.

Re: NextSpace: The next big thing?

A number of good sound-bites there : "the new economy", "co-working", "in the future, everyone will be self-employed." " small businesses need community and infrastructure. This is a fantastic idea, not surprised it's successful. Web-based businesses especially seem suited to this model. Great vid.

Re: After the Storm, how are the Redwoods?!?

jimmulrony — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 14:39:18 -0000

You're little foray into the redwoods has been quite dramatic! Nice tree diplomacy there, andrew, and tree-assessment techniques, amanda.

Re: Unravelling the Mystery Spot

jimmulrony — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 15:36:47 -0000

Ever notice "tour guide speak"?? After the zillionth tour, the guides start emphasizing words like "will" and modulating down in pitch at the end of sentences. I was fascinated by your guide at the mystery spot (which was actually pretty interesting). Fun vid.
