Something to think about

Hey guys!
I'm sure some of you have seen this video before... but its just something that got me thinking.

We've all seen and heard these statistics before, but this video puts them into a much smaller context, and uses some pretty emotional images and music to get the point across.

Just thought I'd throw it out there!

Let me know what you think!

Wow this video was very well made and presented. I noticed it started out with more neutral things to get you hooked into the clip: statistics about race, religion, and sex. And yet, as the clip progressed they began to lay on the harder things to think about - AIDs, education, and people starving. The one that really made me stp and think was when they said that if you had a closet, a refrigorator, a bed and a roof, your were more rich then 75% of the world. I noticed that the music was also quiet and sad too; it was at this moment I shivered, and realized that they were playing on my emotional side - to a good effect too. Thanks for the video: it really does make you feel how lucky we all are.
