I sincerely hope that someone will do an mp3 or youtube of this speech and will also digitally record the TG4 videos and release them on bittorrent.

anyone inspired to do so?

'Over 50 people attended a meeting in UCG this evening '

so does this mean no one made an mp3 of Joe?

Hey SP - com'on people - digitally recording something is not that hard these days - get with the 21st century already! It is not that hard to do. email indymedia and ask how to do it. What exactly is holding you back? technology or the lack of people who know how to use it? seriously, think about it.

if there is a will. there is a way.

certainly someone knows someone on the island with a Tivo-like device that can accomplish this task - this person may even be a card-carrying member of the SP..... let's hope

watched it last night. very good documentary - especially the part on 'co-gestion' - the workers controlled co-operatives in hotels etc. One criticism, its a bit short and you don't get a chance to get into the essence of things. longer analysis by joe in an interview format would have added to it. Otherwise fair play. i know these things can be tedious affairs trying to piece it altogether. looking forward to the next episode tonight
