I'm not sure where this goes...
We were watching clips from topgear at teh topgear/us website and I wondered what would happen if I changed us to uk, would they start speaking in British or something? Well, it turns out they have a lot of clips which look a hell of a lot funnier than ours. Namely, about 10 parts of s show they did where they have to cross Vietnam.

Imagine my surprise and bewilderment that those videos are unavailable for viewing from the U.S.A.

What about let's let Saigons be bygones? Am I being paranoid, do you think the prohibition stems from censorship at this end or theirs?

More to the point: Is there anyway I can use one of those IP address cloaking devices to make it seem as though I am not in a country that tried to steal vietnamese oil reserves? Or the USA?
