McD, When I watched this, I was awed, but I marveled at the fact that we simply lack "origino" ideads. For how long will we ape the jungu? PS: Dennis Kioko - sorry I did not participate in your survey. I was almost done when I realized how negative my answers were - because I'd just watched this flinstones in ki-Okuyo. -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Agree it is absurd to call this local content. What about localizing global content Alice

Washington - no problem , you can relax then take the survey at this link https://spreadsheets.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGxnQkdyVktKUnJ... As for the clip, while it might be some people's idea of local content, probably the "author" was just passing some time OR If you have been to those ksh 5/- , ksh 10/- video joints in rural areas, you will notice that they feature hollywood content with voice overs from a guy narrating an abridged over-simplified of the goings on in the local language , or kiswahili. So probably this was an attempt in that direction
