    As ever - fascinating.
    But, if I may add, your original form of presentation with just a small inset of your head and shoulders is SO much better than what you use in subsequent expositions. What I refer to, of course, is your habit of trying to make your words more comprehensible by constantly waving your hands around
    If you had ever attended any public speaking training you should have been told that this is a dreadful distraction for your audience.
    waving your hands does not, I'm afraid, make your meaning clearer - you are an excellent speaker with a beautiful presentational style. so just avoid this awful habit and I will be able to watch all of your videos to the end and appreciate their content much more
    thanks for listening.
