The moment I saw the board for Sorry, my thought was "that looks like I could play Uckers on it", then you showed Pachisi and Ludo and I thought "oh boy, he's gonna say it" 😄

First, thanks for your strong message for good conservancy! 🐬 Second, I truly admire your erudition and hard work finding all those interconnections. You’re the new James Burke! 🌟 (If you don’t know who he is, ask Cynical Historian).

@Alliterative 2 года назад

Thank you! And oh yes, James Burke is our role model and hero! It’s an honour to be compared to him!

I Remember We Came Up With Some Good Things For It, Like "Sandals Of Santa" Or "Soup Or Salad".

Thank you for your pov on the orgs. The first link for the "Concerns ..." gives me an "error establishing a database connection".

Thanks -- the site seems to be having some problems, I hope it's temporary, but I've added a note to the link. Here's another related article, if you're interested.

I've been following the ocean cleanup for years and at first felt a little defensive when I heard the criticism and read the articles. But as I've continued to read them, I can't argue with some of the points that are being made here - ones that I didn't consider. Thank you for pointing it out. I hope a better plastic retrieval solution can be found.

@Alliterative 2 года назад

Thanks-I know, it’s a complicated and difficult problem and the solutions are also complicated. I didn’t know much about any of this until this campaign, so I’ve been doing a lot of learning pretty quickly, thanks to some scientist and activist friends.

Another great video! Thanks for doing this.

Thank you Alliterative once again for your non breathe taking stream of information. This is by no means a criticism. I do enjoy trying to keep up, however, I find myself re-running your videos to check up on what I think I've heard and after a little research and reassurrance re-running to see what I've missed. If I could make a suggestion, it would be, that when the words you are talking about appear on screen that they are more visually obvious. In this video for instance they appear high to the left and rather small, were as your later images in a similar area are larger and more obvious. Regards.

Thanks for the feedback -- appreciated. Normally for a video with this many details I'd do a proper animated version, but I only had a couple of weeks for it and didn't have time. But I'll consider visibility for the next time.
