Too cool not to share, or, Shut! Up!
Google has added to its repertoire a search of closed captioning on TV shows, with "hits" returning both caption text AND a video screen capture from the moment in the show at which the search phrase appears. It's not exhaustive -- co-worker Dick Barron and I found no hits on "Neil Neill McNeill" or "Cameron Kent" -- but it could well be helpful and/or entertaining.
Here's the hit list for the phrase "Shut up!".

Dear Lex--
There are actually two "L's" in my first and last names. The next time you're unsure... just tune into WGHP or check the station website at fox8wghp.com. BTW--- Neill McNeill--spelled correctly--turned up no hits on the google video engine either. It is, however, fun to plug in the call letters of a station (KRON San Francisco, for example) that regularly puts downloadable video on its website. Enjoy. NM.

Neill, I apologize. And it won't make either of us feel any better that I actually spelled your first name correctly in my search.
