Is this news to you? Forty million people have visited Dollywood, which celebrates its first quarter century this year. Two and a half million folks visit Ms. Parton's amusement park annually. Good for her.
Here's the unfortunately Dolly Parton News: YouTube's new auto-captioning service does a bad job transcribing her lyrics.
Apparently it adjusts for decade and makes contemporary political references? No, that's an 80s vid, I believe, since it features Burt Reynolds a shade past his glory. I don't know how they got those words from what she was singing; she's not exactly mumbling. Lord knows what happens if you run a Dylan video through this thing.
You can try it yourself on any video; hit the red CC button. It's remarkable technology, transcribing on the fly, and when it gets better we'll have transcriptions of every sitcom in the world, which will produce a vast database of lame innuendo, cross-referenced by body part, speaker, and whether or not the audience hooted like a bunch of spanked spider-monkeys afterwards.
