Once you begin, though... you won't be able to stop, so be certain to
have adequate time to watch carefully. I found this to be very
informative and NOT persuasive and am convinced this is not taught in
schools today nor do Americans fully understand distinctions contained
in the video. I admit I didn't either. This should be in every
teacher's curriculum from kindergarten through university level
academics, including graduate schools, and also made available to
every adult, however, anyone's guess how many would bother, be
impressed or even care.

I'm confused. You found the video to be "NOT persuasive" yet you are convinced that it should be taught in all grades of school and made available to all adults.

Why should something that you doubt be taught to all Americans?

Every one has an opinion, ours just differ some.
