 		Hi, I am new to My Own Worst Enemy ARG. I hope it leads somewhere.

The video was horrible! But where does that take us?

 		What, no one here watches horror movies? Laughing

And *hugs thebruce*. Don't worry, someday the capitalist US companies will realize how much more money they could be making by exploiting Canada too ;x

 		Horror movies yes, but I have never done well watching needles (injections and such) and/or flesh slicing. Actually it wasn't even the slicing it was all the DIGGING that got me! Smile

Will they realize how much money they could make by exploiting the UK too?

I really want to see this video given everyone's reaction...Sounds interesting... Sad

It's also the CRTC, protecting Canadian content and encouraging domestic sales... if we were allowed to see -everything- from the US, we'd never watch anything from Canada Razz
US networks are syndicated via Canadian networks (stations like Global and CTV switch to the NBC and Fox networks during primetime shows for instance, but still show canadian commercials).
Dumb regulations.
So I'm not sure if 'content not available' warnings from US networks are entirely their own choice, or due to agreements between US/Canadian broadcasting corps. *tsk*

there's always workarounds though Wink

 		The video is also on Hulu: http://www.hulu.com/watch/41141/my-own-worst-enemy-surveillance#s-p1-st-i1
That's also not supposed to be watchable from anywhere but the US, however there are ways to do so: http://www.kuanhoong.com/2007/12/18/how-to-watch-hulu-shows-outside-of-usa
(Hulu is also the one that has the full episodes to watch)

 		I puked in my mouth, then forced it down. Not from the vid though, from the similarity to the mails I get from my "other job".
Btw, anyone sent an email to Ellen, and if so, did it actually get delivered?

 		I sent an email to all of the consultants as listed on that section of their page. No reply though; I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. There was no instant reply so that's interesting, but there also may never be a reply at all.

Edit: Scrap that, I just got a message from the postmaster. None of the addresses are valid.

 		Video
The only time I can watch the video is at work, and I don't have speakers. Can anyone tell me what she was saying.

MOWE Webiside #3 script:
Quote:
(From 3:10 to 2:59)
"I slept for the first time in days lastnight. I dont remember closing my eyes. The thing is, I woke up at six in the afternoon and I feel more tired now then I did when I went to sleep"

(From 2:57 to 2:42)
"I found something. A scar on my right arm. You can barely see it, but its there. I can tell you with all certainty that it was not there when I went to sleep"
(at 2:42 she plunges the shot into her arm)

(Gets up, picks the radio up and walking back -from 2:26 to 2:22)
"I wouldnt have even noticed it if I hadnt reached across the radio to grab my notes"

(Points cam at radio. From 2:08)
"Watch this"
(moves arm infront of radio)

(then at 2:01)
"Again"
(does the arm infront of radio again and rests arm on table)

(1:56 - 1:51)
Testing...Testing
(puts arm on paper)

(Leans into web cam at 1:41)
"They're listening"
(performs the operation/implant extraction up to the following timestamp)

(0:05)
"I told you"
(end of vid)
