Maybe I misunderstand. I thought we played the videos. I don't have the bandwidth (in every sense of the word.)
Sorry, Craig, I didn't catch your message last night. My internet won't permit videos...it's too slow & spotty. I'll give the new one a shot, but it's not very functional and chews through my monthly high-speed allowance. Sometime in 2021, I'm supposed to get fiber!!!
You dont have fibre optic John? We have had it for two years here in Sydney. Has been rather slow to roll out tho. We did not have ours installed until early this year. Will playing the video on YouTube make any difference. All vids I post here can be played on YT. So you play and at same time post answers on this thread? @John Brunner

No, man, I got Verizon wireless, and am lucky to have it. I know people who are on dial-up, and lots of people who have never been on the internet...never had an email account (they are strangely happy.) Before Verizon had unlimited plans, I would work from home some months and rack up internet bills of over $300 per month. It still saved money over gas and wear & tear on my truck...and I limped along with the speed. My electric co-op is running fiber to every single customer...36,000 homes in 14 counties . It's taking 4-5 years because of required infrastructure improvements...lots of poles being replaced for various reasons. I'm 1/2 mile off the paved road and they are running it to my house at no cost. They do installs one substation at a time...everyone on that substation gets connected & turned on, and then they're on to the next one. So my speed is hit & miss. Depends upon who else is hitting my tower, and where I am in my monthly allotment...and lots of people are at home these days.

Friendliest forum on the planet mate. Good effort John. I also have no idea about bees eyes or taste buds.
So I submitted those answers and went to make dinner, and "Jinney!" popped into my head regarding female mule. Or maybe it's Jenny. I'll go check my answers and report back.
If I got it wrong, I corrected in green. Otherwise, my red answer is correct. I deserve 1/2 point for remembering Jenny when I was making dinner. 1.
