My brain just exploded .. I have no idea what you 2 are talking about

What is U tube

The only tubes that I know about ... were back when I was a wee lad and our TV and radio had tubes

We would take our blacked tube to the hardware store ... look at the chart and compare size, and other info .. then hope to U tube gods that we got home safe and sound with out breaking that tube

Sorry ...

I'm dumb as a stick when it comes to cut and paste

Paste is what I used to eat back in ELEmentaery school

Cut is what I do when I cut my sandwich in half ... diagonally

Sigh ....

Going back to bed and hope this all goes away :))

so THAT`S how the Kiwis do it !

looks different is an understatement ! but I do see what looks like a "share" clickable.....if you left-click on share,does it bring up a screen like the one I posted in my "how to"?

after some very helpful input from Mr Bolin.....here`s another route you might try....after clicking "copy link" you may then be able to go to your forum message composition box and "paste" the link

That is what share brings up on mobile. It's mobile versus desktop browser.

ahhhhhhhhh............Thanks Robert

I`m entirely ignorant of mobile browsers........so the screen Bruce submitted was AFTER clicking "share"?

Yes, but under android's chrome their is an option to switch to the desktop version.

Then you get the same set of shares.

This was done on my phone switching to desktop view.

I suspect they are speaking Klingon, Dennis. Definitely language not of this world.
