Why are the avis 550MB and the MPEGs 1.5GB, when there's no noticeable quality difference? Is it that editing/playing on non-computer stuff or something else?

i can only assume its some kind of jewish conspiracy
You can only assume they tried to achieve same quality.
MPEG1(.mpg) compresses much worse than MPEG4 ASP(what was used in avi) at the same quality aim. You have better compatiblity for MPEG1 than MPEG4 ASP. There you have your answer.

You are ignorant about media containers and codec schemes. AVI is a container and MPEG1 is the codec scheme.
Your quoting inefficiently. I wouldnt make such trivial mistake, as I am very good at posting on the internet. Me, I would write a Javerscript program to automatically generate these posts and then post it on my BLOG.
You have read my BLOG right? http://faggots.dicks.butts/

i don't know why would would like a video version of some useless book for absolute newbies(and written with a backward LISP dialect in mind:How this is "educational" is beyond me). But its address is here: http://groups.csail.mit.edu/mac/classes/6.001/abelson-sussman-lectures/
(i still believe this is waste of time and bandwidth).

Why should I? You cannot command me, and your post imperative tone doesn't make for convincing argument by itself.

On the contrary the quality of discussion improved.
See this old spam thread for reference: http://dis.4chan.org/read/prog/1221358859/1-40

The linked thread is not discussion, it is merely recreation for us weary programmers.
Karl Popper debate, named after the famed philosopher, is a widely used debate format in Eastern European and Central Asian high schools. Originally created by the Open Society Institute as a more flexible team debate format, Karl Popper debate has risen greatly in popularity as the first format that many high school students learn. It focuses on relevant and often deeply divisive propositions, emphasizing the development of critical thinking skills, and tolerance for differing viewpoints. To facilitate these goals, debaters work together in teams of three, and must research both sides of each issue. Constructed similarly to the Lincoln-Douglas debate format, each side is given the opportunity to offer arguments and direct questions to the opposing side. The first speakers of each side have 6 minutes to present their constructive cases, or in the negative's case a rebuttal. The other 4 speakers each have 5 minutes to deliver a speech supporting their team's main arguments. There is also an allotted 3 minutes after each of the first 4 speeches for cross-examination, during which the opposing team has a chance to clarify what was stated in the preceding speech. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discussion

Its not a Discussion (i didn't define it as such) its a spam consisting of repeated mentions of the word "LISP".
The quality of discussion is inversely proportional to spam present on the forum.
* Spam (food), a canned meat product sold by the Hormel Foods Corporation
* "Spam" (Monty Python), a comedy sketch set in a restaurant where every dish contains Spam, the canned meat product
* Spam (electronic), unsolicited or undesired bulk electronic messages (named after the Monty Python sketch); in particular:
o E-mail spam, unsolicited or undesired bulk email messages
* "Spam" (song), a song about the canned meat product, sung by "Weird Al" Yankovic
* "Spam", track #9 on It Means Everything, 1997 ska album by Save Ferris
* Flyposting ("street spam"), illegal blanket advertising in public places.

Its indeed spam, just you haven't bothered to read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_(electronic)#Origin_of_the_term_.22spam.22
It later came to be used on Usenet to mean excessive multiple posting—the repeated posting of the same message. The unwanted message would appear in many if not all newsgroups, just as SPAM appeared in all the menu items in the Monty Python sketch. The first usage of this sense was by Joel Furr[16] in the aftermath of the ARMM incident of March 31, 1993, in which a piece of experimental software released dozens of recursive messages onto the news.admin.policy newsgroup.[17] This use had also become established—to spam Usenet was flooding newsgroups with junk messages. The word was also attributed to the flood of "Make Money Fast" messages that clogged many newsgroups during the 1990s.[citation needed]

This passage disagrees, since the messages are neither "Irrelevant [nor] inappropriate" but rather relevant and appropriate: In 1998, the New Oxford Dictionary of English, which had previously only defined "spam" in relation to the trademarked food product, added a second definition to its entry for "spam": "Irrelevant or inappropriate messages sent on the Internet to a large number of newsgroups or users."[18] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spam_(electronic)#Origin_of_the_term_.22spam.22

Do you need a citation to understand that the repeated posting of the same message is SPAM?
If you need citations for everything obvious:
How could you believe the citations at all, since they need to be cited and the source(of citations of citations) need to be cited,until you require a personal interview with man who coined the definition(to "properly understand").

The citations are peer reviewed, which means they are undeniable truth. I think you are losing this argument, you should silently back out before I make you hax my anus.
