But now I resent not being here to see the next major jump in "what it is to be human." At several tech conferences I've pushed the idea that the artificial womb is the next physical step in the "divorce" of the body from the spirit (and as expected the latest news is of a successful artificial womb), but that ultimately may be less than relevant.

Meanwhile there is so much to learn. Please watch the things, with tolerance.
The only thing I am not tolerant about is intolerance for the most part.

I will come right out and say I am not a Rush fan for the most part but some yes.
I enjoy his views when it doesn't pertain to political ranting and babble.
I dont want to here that crap from any side of the fence I am sick and tired of it.
There is no education in it what so ever.
All it is really about is making money.
With all the projects I have going on at home and at work I have very little time for the boob tube.
Much of my time is spent figuring out problems at home for work the next day.

Worth.

There's a third episode (broadcast tonight) that focuses on the types of nutrients that the body needs and how it gets them - or doesn't. This may be the best one so far. It's not yet up on PBS, but I'll supply a link when it is (if TV™ lets me; I can't edit previous posts here due to elapsed time?)

Food - The Delicious Science

Did you know we can make Vitamin D by tanning mushrooms instead of tanning ourselves?


Ep 3 - We Are What We Eat

http://www.pbs.org/video/3001190801/

The components of food, how the body uses them, and how we grow and prepare food to make them available. Carbohydrates, proteins and amino acids, fats and fatty acids, vitamins. Well worth the watch.
