It isn't an AOL production­, its an AOL Travel post. The video was produced by Space Rip, so you're telling Space Rip to F off?

Right then.

Also, same folks that run HP Travel run AOL Travel (me). Same content buddy, different format (soon to be improved format I should add as well).

Cheers,

I'd like to agree with you. But what's so lucky about living in Darfur? Or Kabul? Or a ton of other places in sub-Sahara­n Africa? Not only is daily life a struggle just to live to the next day, but there's no cable!!!

Well, those things are man-made issues. You don't want cable. You need satellite!
