that's awesome. I would love to set some precedent for quoting video. as I said before, it's an accepted practice to quote text from someone's blog and make comment on it. this is called conversation/critique. When a videoblogger quotes video from someone's blog and makes comment on it, there's a big chance it's called infringement. I know its a hazy issue, but be great to start defining. if not, we're just going to have all these separate videos on youtube with no interaction between them. its just TV again with lots of different channels.
