As important as this information is, I can't help but feel that some of the TED speakers have lost the 'punch' that gave TEDTalks success initially. Am I just jaded after watching hundreds of these?

Have I not been saying this shit since my stint here began Now that it's presented in a "respectable" TEDTALK, perhaps some of you will begin to wake the fuck up?!!? Food is used as fucking poison by most 1st world countries. Again: To all you ignorant fucking monkeys who think that the U.S., UK, MExico, etc... needs some magical health care system that works for everybody, go fuck yourselves.

Learn to eat righteously and instinctively, and guess what?? Doctors can go about the business of mending broken bones and stitching skin. Cancer rates will plunge. Diabetes will go the way of small pox and cholera.

.....and can we PLEASE legalize homicide??!!

The way he emphasizes his speech is also annoying, how it appears that he thinks every single thing he says is some kind of fundamental truth no matter how mundane a topic or point he brings up..


Well, just about everything he ever talks about is some kind of fundamental truth about the world we live in, I can sympathize with your objection to how he talks, but if you can stand it, or ignore its peculiarity, I strongly recommend his TEDtalks lecture on the Large Hadron Collider , one of the best presentations I have ever seen. Enjoy, if you can
