Quote:My own speculation is this. Different knowledge is perceived sometimes as "advanced knowledge". So called "advanced knowledge" is nothing more that knowledge not acquired or achieved.

[( I watched the entire 45 minutes of it) not really]. But pretty awesome nonetheless. The options are limitless. I'm fairly religeos so I try to add that element to my thinking of the universe. Sucks we can't talk further in those regards.
