How to access or find transcript of a captioned YouTube video?

Particularly for a YouTube interview that already has captioning, how can I (and you) save 10 minutes & just read the transcript file that the captioning is pulled from?
TED talks have an interactive transcript so you can just read the talk; does Youtube have something similar, that I'm overlooking? Or if someone creates a rough transcript, where's the place to put it where others can easily find it? (fyi, when googling, it seems if you don't quote the word "transcript", Google ignores it)

Response by poster: flt, that worked great. Thank you.

For this, I found YouTube closed-caption ripper (free online app). It works, as I tried with this video (Nathalie Miebach: Art made of storms). It generates a SRT file, which you can open with many text readers.
