    Excellent Job breaking all the factors down into manageable pieces, I'm going to share this video with friends who find it too difficult to unplug for 2hrs to watch Moving Forward or Addendum.
    Thanks Ben!

    Great work Ben, as usual you take touchy, complex subjects and explain the concepts in easy to understand ways.
    Your a great presenter and the Zeitgeist Movement and humanity in general is better because of it.

    Keep it up!

    I'll skip the praise (we all know good interview when we see one) and concentrate on (not his) problem: as mr. McLeish said I, we, all of us, need to start thinking, educate ourselves and even not follow Z movement if we think it is not the answer but begin critical thinking with information from various independent media. The problem, as I see it, is ... 'mental laziness' of not questioning everyday axioms that are, no matter how, wrong for human and/or society because they are here from beginning/impossible to change/only way... What I want is rapid mass sharing of (consciousnesses ;) Z movement idea but this is opposite to 'self-enlightenment' and independent mind that can not be manipulated for our everyday atrocities we take from granted... So in order to 'make' someone see the (at least larger :) truth we shouldn't use tried and tested methods and to tell you the truth method now used is good but... way to slow. Hmmm, I'm exactly uncomprehensive as I don't want to be, so I'll shut up now... :D
