Why Won't They Listen?

Why Won’t They Listen is an exciting new documentary profiling the campaign to save Monaghan General Hospital, as seen through the eyes of two amateur filmmakers.

The documentary details the efforts of local campaigners over the last five years, as well as interviewing political representatives and those involved in the national debate regarding Irish healthcare.

A teaser/trailer can be found on youtube and check out their website

Its been a while..

Opps have been lazy on the blogging front the last while.. well what new to blog.. its awful the Virginia Tech massacre and raised numerous questions. My cousin lectures there, but thankfully wasn’t in Blacksburg that day..
Went surfing last weekend in Bundoran – was great fun, and the weather was beautiful.. how did we get on? – well got up a few times, but obviously spent more time falling off! ;) Was good fun and all of us had fun!
Work is going fine and phd coming along (though at times its better not analyse that too much!)

Came by some good quotes lately..
“Action seems to follow feeling, but really action and feeling go together and by regulating the action, which is under the more direct control of the will, we can directly regulate the feeling which is not” – William James
“You cannot teach a man anything you can only help him to find it within himself”Galileo
“Everyman I meet is my superior in some way. In that I learn of him” - Emerson
and one last one..
"Be a friend to yourself, and others will."
-Scottish Proverb
