Science rules.

I don't understand why there are so few people watching this.

[AkiraBergman]

Because the mainstream population like easy and fashionable things. It is always the same in any area of culture. I think our culture does not like too many thinking people and programs the majority to follow the leaders. Like ants.

I rather enjoy it. If you think fast, you can talk fast and if you think fast you can understand fast too. right?

I'm American but I've been over sees and seen the potential of students in training in other developing nations. With America being a "world super power" other countries are stressed to compete and push their kids even harder and train them even better than we do. Not surprising to see most of our jobs being lost to foreigners who do it twice as well for much less. Instead of getting angry at how our foreign policies are handled, I believe America should just start upping the bar.

Hi Damien, I can't reply on behalf of anyone else involved in our vodcast, but I must agree I was a total motormouth on this episode. I think next time I'll go easy on the coffee before I present. It's a learning process. Thanks for watching. Sean O'Neill.
