7. Thank you but that won't be necessary I watched it live and have watched
a couple times yesterday, showed our friends, who most didn't know who Colbert was but damn sure do now. But DU works great until I decide to watch it again then it slows to a crawl. DSL and high performance 'puter, maybe its you tube:shrug:
