Wonderful link Vasilis! -your link reminded me, there are lots of great TED Talks that touch upon our subject in one way or another.

Sounds like an interesting event you are attending even more exciting than all the casinos that surrounds you :) Think with video postings we all need to add some describing text as well as I know I am not the only one sitting on snail connections. I would like to book wednesday 15th at 20:00 for our meeting. Had a look at the schedule and it looks good, nice start of the course so far, well done! Hi Clint,
