<p>tasdad, thanks for posting this. It’s brilliant. I can’t wait to listen to the whole recording.</p>

<p>In a small way I also wish my son wasn’t interested in Engineering so he could entertain the likes of Kenyon and its brethren. </p>

<p>Such an inspiring speech and the video is very well done, too. When I have some time I will definitely listen to the whole speech.</p>
