# 20160205 Added logic to account for
# missing torrent file at democracynow.org
# and to try every 10 minutes for an hour
# if it does not. Hides wget error message
# and only prints exit status if file does
#
# 20160602 added oldvids variable, and rm command to
# 
# 20161029 added command line variable to allow downloading
# torrent for show from the day before. For example, adding
# line will download Thursday's show on Friday. This will
# only work for "day before" shows and not for downloading
