Also, this website’s requirement that you create an account to add a comment is tedious, while the requirement that the password be at least 8 characters is moronic. It’s a blog, not a bank, for f***’s sake! (as Bob might put it :)

initially i was quite annoyed to see Barry Kelly’s post. i wasn’t expecting swear words in a post on TED!! ahhh but then i did my thinking and went on a different tangent. he was annoyed that you’d called Geldof British. In America people call Russell Crowe Australian. But he’s a New Zelander (which isn’t part of Australia by the way) – so I thought – how interesting that we “assume” a culture / heritage because of the way they behave, where they live, how they act….?

Anyway.

All I wanted to say was “great video”. I wasn’t one of the millions that had seen it before. regardless of the message – really well done. “nice”.
