All Apologies

Sorry (in particular, to those who have been avidly reading, responding, and engaging in a positive way)I haven't been responding to comments (and merely publishing them). I've been otherwise occupied. For example...why can't I get YouTube videos to play in either Firefox or Chrome within the Ubuntu/Linux architecture? It always tells me there's a missing plugin, but no matter how many times I try to install these Flash Plugins, the darn things never work! I'm going around in circles. I don't know why I'm obsessed with this, but if I figure everything else works so well in Linux, why doesn't that? Steve Jobs would probably laugh at me and say, haha, use html5. Thing is, YouTube uses Flash, and there's nothing Jobs or even the powerful folks at Google can do about that!
