Our perspective

What we see depends mainly on what we look for. Sir John Lubbock

As free citizens in a political democracy, we have a responsibility to be interested and involved in the affairs of the human community, be it at the local or the global level. Paul Wellstone

Playbook: The insinuated non-accusation accusation - Final update

See if you can spot one or more insinuated non-accusation accusations in this audio clip:




[Resident Longrie addresses the council during the second reading of the proposed sign ordinance, January 25, 2010]

Update:

Some readers report trouble with the embedded Google audio player I used for this audio clip. While we figure that out, here is a youTube version.


Update 2: As long as we are testing, here is a different embedded player:




And still another:



Final update (technote):

For future reference, and readers who care about blogger technology, the issue with the Google audio player has been resolved. Internet Explorer cannot correctly parse the mp3 file URL from the player's URL query string unless a (meaningless) additional parameter is added to the query string. Better browsers, like Firefox, handle it correctly. Other players like the two used above pass the mp3 URL as a flash variable rather than within the player query string, so the issue does not arise.

So now you know!
