Today's Video Daily Double is the Bomb, and You can Print That!
Good day, Educationeers! As always, your Cap'n brings another Wednesday-tastic edition of the Video Daily Double. Our summer series of sales films is winding down, but I've found two more films trying to sell you something while pretending to be educational. The second film is shameless in their trickery by invoking a nuclear attack in order to scare up sales.
Make with the fear monger purchases!

Our first film, Printing, explains how important printing is. Or, was. Not to bag on printing or anything, but the whole "digital revolution" sure did make things trickier for everything explained in this film...
Our second film, The House in the Middle, makes what I would call a HUGE leap in order to sell paint for your home. I mean, okay, maybe an unkempt house would probably be more susceptible to weapons, but bear in mind that this film was sponsored by the National Paint, Varnish, and Lacquer Association. They're not just warning you about nuclear blasts; they're trying to scare you into buying their product...
