I thought that was very interesting PMM. And it probably is the only way the planet's going to be saved from us ruining it? But the trouble is, the people who get into power in the governments of the world are driven by something quite different aren't they, or so it would seem by the selfish material-obsessed scum that are currently in power. And the thing is that that self-serving behaviour with its convenient empathy amputation, it seems to be a strategy that rides roughshod over anyone with more compassion. Fuckers.

The bit about the 'mirror neurons' is really interesting too, that it works for when people are sad or happy or they stub their toe, as well as firing the nut-eating areas when you watch someone eating a nut.

I might watch a few more of those, thanks for pointing them out.
