  The electrical conductivity in the hot phase of the QCD plasma is extracted
from a quenched lattice measurement of the Euclidean time vector correlator for
1.5 < T/T_c < 3. The spectral density in the vicinity of the origin is examined
using a method specially adapted to this region, and a peak at small energies
is seen. The continuum limit of the electrical conductivity, and the closely
related soft photon emissivity of the QCD plasma, are then extracted from a fit
to the Fourier transform of the temporal vector correlator.
