I edited two small videos together with the YouTube Video Editor (http://www.youtube.com/editor) but when I viewed the final product, found the transitions between the first and second video to be poor. This is how the originals appear. Apologies.

"During the question and answer session following Pipes' talk, a time that was supposed to have elicited discussion from people with different points of view - something that Pipes greatly desired - a number of people walked out of the large room where the talk was given. The room was packed with hundreds of people, and only about fifteen people walked out, which normally wouldn't have caused a major disturbance. The students who walked out probably realized this So they walked out right in front of Pipes, rudely and arrogantly disturbing an otherwise civil and incredibly important discussion. One student even had the gall to throw a ream of paper in the air, right in Pipes' face.

Fact: After the lecture, this same group of about fifteen students stood outside the lecture hall, holding signs with statements like, "We will not tolerate intolerance."

Hmmm. Let's see. Who's being open-minded here? Who's being tolerant in this situation? Which party is afraid or intolerant of the other's point of view? The answer is clear."
