    Too coolio! I love all this "Who are we?" stuff. It's so ambiguous! :) Worth a watch for interesting insights, I wouldn't recommend it when you're tired, though!

    Good documentary, like how it was constructed. Nicely done and I love how it always kept coming back around in circles. In a sense its true though if we are aiming to find a meaning or reason if you wish then the answer will likely come back to what we know already know.

    I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Ash! Things just go round in circles, don't they? What if existence goes round in circles. Like we never actually die. I can't imagine what it would be like if I died. Would I start from the beginning, like a GAME OVER scenario? Would time rewind to my beginning? You may enjoy the movie "Mr Nobody", it's completely mind blowing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYlFfEO_qh0&feature=BFa&list=SPDC5B51DB3962ADEF

    Consider this example, which we discussed in class, as a representation of the importance of looking beyond "surface clues" to make conclusive decisions.
