Commenter John Whitman visited me yesterday to help with some portion of the content and suggested that I needed to record this for posterity citing it as “historic”.
I don’t know about that, but it does show the David-Golaith nature of putting on a 24 hour TV show to challenge Al Gore. What I lose in Gore sized special effects budgets I make up for in clutter. 😉
Kenji is just off camera, sleeping, ready to give UCS member commentary.
Look for final schedule to be posted early tomorrow, blogging will be light or non-existent for the next 48 hours.


Is that a 3-dPrinter with the glass cover on the first photo?
REPLY: NO a pc -A
As I said in the “Counter programming” post, please, if at all possible, record, replay, and divide into segments labeled by persons and subjects.
@R A TAylor…this is work, lots of it. No guarantees. I’m doing what I can. Technology sometimes isn’t cooperative the way I’d like it.
As somebody who works in the industry Anthony I have some idea of the enormous task you have in front of you, absolutely amazing effort, the work will pay off.
And I thought the cabling for my 2 m/cs was a mess …..
Website address please? And clutter? my workstation isn’t anywhere near as tidy 🙂
REPLY: Website??? Right here. Visit tomorrow, read schedule, watch -A
Best of luck!!!
You have a loyal fan- base who are on your side and in your corner!!!
Make sure the recording goes good so the highlight DVD is excellent. Having a collection of short video presentations on at least the main points would be helpful.
Given the possible reactions by Kenji to seeing Al Gore, do you have a laptop he can watch that’s waterproof and washable? Sure, you prefer us to stick to the facts, argue the evidence, don’t get too emotional. But after watching Gore for several hours, or even longer than five minutes, it’d be understandable if Kenji can no longer hold back and needs to dump on Al.
That much video is huge. How about crowdsourcing the audio into a transcript and embed the slides? Be happy to help.
Thank you for your efforts, I will be tuning in for sure
Mr. Watts, just do what you can, don’t go and exhaust yourself.
What you are doing is far above and beyond etc.
I don’t see how that can work at all.
Not enough clutter. No rats’ nets.
And no rubber chicken. 🙂
For those with Macintosh computers: Google for “how to capture video on mac” (as I did). I found an article called “10 Clever Screen Recording Tools for Mac” (at http://mac.appstorm.net/roundups/utilities-roundups/10-screen-recording-tools-for-mac/) and some other stuff. I will try to record the video with some such program (the free tools won’t suffice), but am uncertain if I can succeed. Others may wish to try also.
I’m not sure who Goliath is. A guy with the world’s most viewed web-site on global warming, or Al Gore. Good luck! I’m sure it will be great. Get a few shots of Kenji in. I’ve never met a unionized concerned scientist.
I trust we will see counters for the two programs
Sorry for this ignorant question, –but is WUWT-TV associated with any channels (US-direct TV) that may somehow carry any portion of it?—Do we just try to follow it here?
I suppose it will be streaming here.
@NeedleFactory
I’ve had good success recording screen content to MP4 on Mac with ScreenX ($10) together with the free software SoundFlower (to re-route sound from speaker output to microphone input). I suggest testing a few times beforehand since the Soundflower-routing isn’t immediately obvious.
I can hardly wait!
Wishing you the BEST.

I second that idea. I don’t have the bandwidth to do streaming video, and even if I did, I have the attention span of a gnat. Plus, I can read about 8 times as fast as I can listen.
My experience with electronics, specifically a series of gating electronics (I drew the schematics and tower configurations in case we had to scramble) to create a series of specific, center frequency, fast on-set, pips) reveals my age. For data entry, we used chadded data cards, saved it all on “floppy” disks (and I do mean floppy), and spent tons of money on air conditioners, used exclusively to keep our electronic babies cool while our veterans cooked on hot hospital floors. Those same components now fit on the head of a pin.
Mr. Watts – thank you so much for providing this! I would like to watch the entire show, but am hindered by that nasty four letter word (work)… I realize this is a huge undertaking, but was wondering if it will be recorded at the studio? It would be great to be able to purchase a copy (with a large portion going to support your site, I hope) to view at a later date, or show to the AGW folks I am constantly getting into heated discussions with.
Best of Luck!
I would like to make an open request / suggestion to the many viewers here on WUWT. If you know how to record the presentations that Anthony will be offering us, please do so and then perhaps there can be an consolidation somewhere that those who have missed some part or all can view post presentation.
I ask this as Anthony is doing all he can and recording his achievements may be best outsourced / crowdsourced. I would do it but I don’t have the knowledge. Some of you do.
Just do it!
You rock Anthony, kicking ass and taking names! It must suck to algore about now. Upstaged by a guy in his jamies and a netcaster box. Ouch!
Anthony, the photos of your efforts are really inspiring. I hope that all goes smoothly and that the results are as good as they deserve to be. You have a huge task in front of you but it will pay off, I’m sure.
@eyesonu
Unless Anthony has obtained a premium subscription, Ustream ads will obliterate streamed content and recordings made by viewers will have missing sections.
I checked about the premium subscriptions, and given the expected number of viewer hours I’d be into it over $2000, possibly more.
@eyesonu @accordionsrule The only option to pull this off was the free ad-based service. I’m not happy with that, but it was the only way. I also tried Livestream which is more affordable but they had technical issues with my Tricaster 40. YouTube doesn’t allow Live streams, only recordings, and the remainder of the choices weren’t useful either.
Best I can do under cirmcumstances.
