    Wow, some of it is certainly an eye opener!

    The bit at the end saying in the time of the video 395 babies were born in India brought back memories... In New Delhi one of their hospitals has a board out the front with how many babies had been delivered there, it passed a million while I was there Scary stuff!!

    "For students starting a 4 year technical degree this means that.....
    half orf what they learned in the first year of study will be outdated
    by their third year of study"

    I studied in 1960-64, my only consolation is the the "University of Life" keep teaching you untill you died

    My 4 year degree is up to its 6th year now, hate to wonder if any of it is still relevant next year when/if I graduate.


    That was a great alternative view of the world at large!

    So,......... What is the answer to the question at the end?
    What does it all mean?
    I find the number of births taking place in a set time a bit disturbing but I would be very interested to see also alongside that statistic, the number of deaths in the same time. The differential is the interesting figure.
    Regards
