Interesting! I'm using Iceweasel 2.0.0.19 (Firefox under another name) on Linux. I'll have to check out what blocks it has activated! I put on a fragrantly scented facemask and started IE up on Windows. Going to the same URL, I now find a big "video screen" just below the line: The R and Science of Predictive Analytics: Four Case in R -- The Video And it duly plays. But at the same place in my Firefox, I only see a little button inviting me to "Get Adobe Flash Player". But I already have that installed for Iceweasel!. Well, maybe it needs updating. Let me try that ... It says "Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.22.87" and I have flashplayer_9 already there, so ... (some time later) I now have flashplayer_10 installed, but I still get the same result. Hmmm .... Well, thanks for helping to locte what the problem might be!
