I just listened to part of it. The streaming is very jerky and I'm on broadband.

The problem is not just in Nigeria but all over Africa. Those who explore for raw materials are the ones getting rich. The people of Africa are being exploited, as usual. The governments of some of the countries are no help either due to corruption.

Look at the previous situation in Sierra Leone with respect to diamonds.

Wish there was more narration about the heart one, but it was really cool. I love it when stills end up looking like a movie.

Although for some reason the sound of a heart beating, even feeling my own heart beat--is just really creepy to me. I think it's reminder of my mortality, and I just have trouble grasping the concept that something can beat for that long. Just a thought.
