This is the voice of the report of the week signing on Welcome to today's broadcast, ladies, gentlemen, everyone listening. It is

Thursday the 12th of December 2019, 1212. 19. Making our way through the month wherever we're getting through it.

I'm not, you know, every week is different, every show, therefore is different, right?

That variability, you have some. therefore is going to be different, right?

That variability, you have some weeks that are, you have more to discuss than others,

you have some weeks that,

you know, I have to stop myself

because the show is it's going to get too long otherwise and then there's some weeks where you just don't really have all that much to talk about and this is one of those weeks.

I was motivated to do this

back quite a while and I had asked an interesting question and I remember I was really interested in the

replies that came in. It was just some very very thought-provoking material and I

figure hey look it's been three years since I explicitly asked this question.

Obviously, there's a lot of new people that are listening in the meantime or maybe even if anyone's been listening since then

viewpoints can change, etc.
