| 0:00.0 | I'm Hello and welcome back to Sociology 101. |
| 0:28.7 | Had a little glitch when I tried to start this just a minute ago. |
| 0:31.9 | So hopefully you guys can tell me if it's coming through any clearer. |
| 0:35.1 | Sometimes you have to just shut everything down and start up again. But today we're going to be answering question |
