  1. Beautiful. Though I have never been home to my mother’s house your talk and music took me on a flight to there. Thank you.

  2. So Bona has a looper too, like everybody else. That’s the inspirational talk for today? In other words, what’s this doing here?

    Apparently there are performances at TED, are they going to be dumped here? There is already too MUCH content, which is too often NOT so interesting.

    Don’t get me wrong, I like Bona’s music.
