Exciting stuff- this is far different than air landing food into Uganda or something similarly dramatically altruistic, this is setting up the building blocks for creating a respected Africa in which every African child has a chance to learn and bring that education back to use it where it is needed most. Africa will be a more educated continent- educated Africans quelling war and spreading civilization to places it is seemingly absent.

The TED talk is really amazing. I can only hope that in 50 years when I'm an old man, Africa will not be the butt end of AIDS jokes.

Didn't watch the video yet, but it's founded by someone called 'Turok'; it must be good.

Damnit, I read Sulk's post first, and now all I can think is "**** yeah, dinosaurs!"

But I'm on the right track, yeah?

Yes. They are turning the Africans into dinosaurs.

I can't believe I got two uses out of one picture. Ignore the part about Ryuken.

You guys are jerks.

I watched a few TED talks and they are quite interesting and thought provoking.
