I know of at least one old video with a few gems in it largely ignored because they didn't directly relate to known subjects.... one of the original woj collection videos too. What one person would stress another would throw away as extra.

That's why I like to link the video.  I add stuff that I like but it's up to the reader to go and watch the video for all the other info.

Dina:
I agree, Mira. Also, I always did that. The real canon are the books.

Groinkick, as I am not so good with oral English, I love transcriptions. I always miss a part of the videos. So thanks again for those doing transcriptions!

Which is why the best WoJ are recorded on video. Because your summary may not be someone else's summary.

Quantus:
Well, sure the original source material is always the most accurate source, but for those of us that dont speak the original Aramaic or have bandwidth limitations, translations and transcriptions are damn useful to have. 

raidem:
Yep.  So, if you want the best, most accurate WOJ watch the video. If you want a corrupted quick glance read someones summary.

I've never forced someone to accept mine as gospel.  I've transcribed portions accurately but as it pertains to a limited question and answer.  And even then, there is subtly in response that is lost with just printed transcription.
