I realize this is off subject and I may get flogged mercilessly but you  
gotta watch the video!  It's 10 minutes long and requires a high-speed  
connection to work right.  If you don't have one, find someone who has  
one and beg them to let you watch.

'specially all you Brits.  Watch the video and you'll understand.

If anyone wants to see the pic before you go to the trouble of watching  
the video, I've posted it and the URL on my build site.
