    That is really interesting. I love the language and vocabulary. I wonder how many recent high school graduates would even be able to understand what he is saying.

    Indeed. So much good, useful info in it. Ben Franklin passed in 1790 after a good, long life. I wonder who wrote this?
    "Don't be stubborn. You are missing out."
    I rest my case.
