   Doing it well is hard, agreed.  But in this age of shaky, grainy,
 noisy YouTube videos, doing it good enough is becoming more viable.
 I've done some proof-of-concept tests and gotten surprisingly good
 results relative to the setup (e.g., $200 point-and-shoot camera
 mounted on a table tripod).

*YouTube*? Heck--after growing up on *movies* like `The Blair Witch Project'
and *TV shows* like `Battlestar Galactica', all with liberally-applied
`MTV-style' camerawork, I find anything that's *not* shaky and
generally lacking in cinematic refinement to be *completely unwatchable*!

And don't get me started on audio!

   That said, in this particular case, we're not missing out on *too*
 much.  I don't think I've been to a LUG meeting in some time that
 didn't have several people with high def video cameras built-in to
 their handheld computers (AKA cell phones).  One advantage of such
 devices is they often have radios built-in to do live streaming if you
 want.

Oh, come--there must be some LUG meetings without any tech-geeks,
*somewhere*..., mustn't there? :)

(actually, there's a subtle-but-serious suggestion, written
 between those lines...)
