 Hi Selma,
 
 All this encouragement is unnecessary. As any brain
 researcher will tell you, the best work done by 
 scientists/researchers is before they reach the 
 age of 30. So I have a distinct advantage :))
 
Mario responds:

Hey, Sunith,
Only brain researchers who haven't reached 30 yet
would say that, since the brain is still full of mush
at that age:-))  The best scientists and inspirational
leaders are those who have a balanced quantity of both
gray cells and gray hair - or in the case of Guiliani,
no hair:-))

Hi Selma,

age of 30. So I have a distinct advantage :))

I am completely incapable of any such actions. I believe in the power of the 
masses, and would rather work towards empowering them through education or 
support of causes that seek to do so.

I don't think I'll be plagiarising any of your ideas in college papers 
unless you can provide me with some brilliantly analytical insights into 
telecommunications :))

First I applaud you because as young as you are, you've certainly held your 
own in this argument, that
too being up against a Dotor, a formidable Roland and lovable me :))

While education and information are at the core of change, I would like to 
cite Rudy Giuliani as an example of how change can occur through sheer will 
power.

Sometimes, we need to be propelled by need and winged by desire to bring 
about change. (Now don't you go
plagiarising my quote for one of your term papers, this is an original. Good 
luck in London :))
