In listening to the discussion in segment one I find it very interesting the parellel between what we find "yucky" in an extreme sense and what makes us uncomfortable because its so real.

Interesting point... Its funny how everytime I pass a car accident on the highway I have to look. Its like I'm engulfed and fascinated.
