    There is about 32 & a half minutes of Chomsky's speech which is missing from this version of the video. The gap occurs at around 03:20. I assume that this was unintentional & resulted from a faulty recording of the original video.

    I WANT NEXT NOBEL TO CHOMSKY Only problem is that Nobel Peace Prize isn't good enough for him, he's far above so many others who have earned it

    Chomsky answered a question at the end of this talk from a 'troofer' (who as usual couldn't accept the answers and demanded ridiculous lengths be taken to 'disprove' him). it was this man I was referring to, not Chomsky at all. sorry for the misunderstanding.

    Which doesn't mean I don't disagree with him on many things.

    "troofer" - a term for members of the 9/11 truth movement. "to" - a typo, yes.. unless I'm missing your point?

    Was this lecture held at LSE or a fucking hospital? Always polite not to attend lectures if you're going to incessantly cough through them.
