>I think the invasion of Afghanistan was inevitable Inevitable as in "in response to 9/11"? I don't think so, it was planned months, if not years before September 2001. [edit, corrected typo to 2001] http://www.wsws.org/articles/2001/n

Safe harbor is definitely good but it doesn't have to be exactly the way it is currently. I read that current YT (or the host) must wait for at least 10 days before adding the flagged content back. That sounds like BS, why must a legitimate

Agreed, 7207 is good enough, commas (or fullstops) are helpful when there are more than 5 or 6 digits but there is no confusion with a 4-digit number. >Or at least on HN, you could use 7.207 10^3 and be done with scientific notation. So

I was surprised why 7.2 fps is worth mentioning, I almost ignored this video because of the "wrong" title. The original source does say 7,207 and that is clear enough that it's not 7 fps, it's 7k fps. Even 7207 would be clear enough but 7.2
