Here are three short clips. And there's a ton more at this wonderful site, Mcluhan Speaks

1960: "We're just trying to fit the old things into the new form."

1968: "There's no longer any gap between the campus and wall street"

1977: "Another strange effect of this electric environment is the total absence of secrecy"

Opening the page autostarted all three videos at the same time. Was that intended as a Mcluhanesque statement, or is it just another bug or preference quirk with the new Lion/Safari?
