Snap.

This is what a youtube URL looks like www.youtube.com...K3FgksrxzM0, the only thing you need to type in are the underlined characters in your URL.

EDIT: Nevermind, psychic guy here got it.

No problem, it's not that clear what you need to do. That's why I make sure it works in preview before posting. I've seen this guy before, I've had fun listening to him before, I'll probably start with his "part 1" though.

It embedded correctly for me. I don't think that is the problem

It works fine.

reply to post by speaknoevil07


Yeah, but that was after some helpful assistance.

Yea he has alot of goodness to say on some philosophical views.


But some real radical ones , and is not much of a fact checker either. I remember bringing to light one of his videos that he didnt do his homework on and he banned me from leaving comments. I still watch a few of his videos here and there . But hes out there on somethings , and his fact checking makes me weary

I don't enjoy all of his videos, but I really liked this one.
Sorry to hear he banned you from giving comments on his posts.
Sounds a bit like unpleasant censorship.

edit on 3/12/11 by Pokoia because: (no reason given)

Does it mention how the schooling system indirectly set's each year against each other?
The whole - Year 7 - 8 - 9 etc is a bad idea.
You need to bracket the years into small groups instead. That way you've got older kids with some slightly younger kids.
It would work better and you'd have less conflict.
Having the entire (or nearly entire year) together as one causes more personality clashes (typically).

I haven't got time to check those links but that's one thing that the school system should address...

Thank you for sharing this.
I watched the whole video and was generally impressed
by his rational and ability to make this concept of his understandable.
There is another Irishman with even more radical but similar ideas.
Except he's a lot more fringe and metaphysical as well as bat **** crazy. (in a good way)
About how our brains are split and programed, whats his name???
Tsarion. Michael Tsarion.

Hi sealing, that was a great tip!!
Thanks

reply to post by Pokoia

Thank you Pokoia, but that video you brought to our attention,
will have more people identifying with it ,than Tsarion's work.
Although Tsarion's quite fun.
Great find again.
I hope more and more people watch your thread/video.
It's pretty groundbreaking stuff.

Hi WatchRider, your idea of mixed groups, different ages and so, sounds very good to me.
Than the groups gets a more normal structure, and even bullying should be less.
The older ones get more resposability.
