This is not as simple as it sounds, I was talking to a member of this 
list who I bumped into in the local supermarket this week.
He pointed this out. This is a talk that you are doing to some of your 
mates, perhaps not with the best of preparation and possibly
not with the equipment that would be ideal. That is fine s long as that 
is all that it is.
There is however a big problem when this becomes near permanently 
recorded on the web. A potential employer might be looking at it and
form an opinion of your substandard performance which is unfair. They 
may not properly understand the context which we take for granted.
