Well, now, ya have a point there. But seriously... you'd never be able to pull off "Footsteps of History" across LA.

Jeebus, Bob, let us discover some things for ourselves! (re: the LED size comment)

Oh, so the Ceremoinies were not carried at the same time through the entire US? The broadcast just finished here. I was able to get home to watch the end of the ceremonies in HD. Stunning does not begin to describe what I saw. That's lame! NBC is terrible with the time thing. They should have carried the ceremonies live (like on another one of the NBC/Universal channels) and then shown them again in Prime Time like they did in Canada.

It started at 7:30 but it was preshow, pretty much. Actually, it was really good. Well shot, good commentator moments.
