An idea worth spreading

Everyone should try their hardest know matter what they do. If you want to be a garbage man, fine, thats your thing. But do it to the best of your ability. If everybody tries their hardest at everything they do, our world would be a better place.

  • A comment on Conversation: Debate: Should students rely on technology for their homework?

    Oct 24 2012: Whether we like it or not, technology is becoming a tremendous part of students‘ lives. We as a government spend too much much money on books and papers. I believe that it would be more cost-efficient in the long run, to have technology in our schools. I think it's very important to know how to do things such as do a math problem, or know a specific word. However, I think it would make more sense to become more modern and up to date.

  • A comment on Conversation: Sahara desert as a solar farm.

    Oct 23 2012: I think this is a very good idea. The question is, who would have control over it? There's always going to be war over something that somebody doesn't have. There will never be absolute world peace. If there is an energy source this big and valuable, there's going to be more than one person that wants it. Although this is a very good alternative energy source, I think this could be a big mistake as well. This would also cost a lot of money to achieve. There are many factors, but this is a plausible idea.

  • A comment on Talk: Melissa Marshall: Talk nerdy to me

    Oct 23 2012: I'm currently in high school and I would like to become an engineer one day. Hearing this presentation I think it was very helpful for presentations I will later present in life. I think she is correct about the work scientists and engineers achieve today. It is inaccessible to the average audience and it can be made simpler, without being simpler.
