Late edit: It was the most amazing speech.

I'm guessing this was at BYU somewhere. Am I supposed to guess what building this was in? (GWU)

Correct, this was at the McKay Events Center at UVSC, on account that BYU wouldn't allow it on their campus.

Wow, good slow-speed shot. Tripod, monopod, or hand-held?

hand held -- the vr helps, plus I brace quite a lot and have a fairly sturdy framework. Especially crammed into to those seats.

Mormons are struggling to gain recognition by inviting celebs to give talks at BYU, the simple reality is: even if 11 millions of you keep talking that grass is blue it won't change the fact that isn't :))))

ireneusz - I don't quite know what you're saying. BYU invited Cheney -- I'm a former Mormon, but just what is it you're saying that is analogous to saying the "grass is blue"? If you're making a theological argument it's lost on me since I think all religious arguments have the same value.

Besides, ever heard of Kentucky Bluegrass ;)?
