When I saw your initial post about the guests, I didn't "know" who Ben McKenzie was, because I only knew of an actor by that name. WOW! They were one and the same! I knew he was a hottie (loved him on "Gotham" ), I had no idea he was a smartie too! He actually explained a complicated thing in a digestible way to those of us kinda stupid in that area. I know a little about a variety of things, in some areas, I am very well-educated, but when it comes to math and economics, put me in the corner with my dunce cap because that shit don't make no sense to me!

For the first years here, I used to ask for help understanding economics, and almost without fail, I was shot down or attacked for just asking! Many, I am guessing, may have thought I was just being contrary, but even in posts where I made it VERY obvious I was asking so I could learn, well, the results were often the same, so I stopped asking.
