A linear tabulation of age only counts when wear-and-tear, biological age, amongst related others, are taken into account.  The Perspective For instance, Chinese culture has been tabulated to be thousands of years old, going back to the Shang, or Hsia.  Egyptian culture has been dated to be even more than that.  Western contemporary culture has been dated back to Greece.  But that isn’t true, logically speaking, albeit it be true chronologically. When it comes to culture, its age can only be determined by the continuity of a culture of antiquity to the present in terms of perspective.  When there is a major shift in culture, and the people began to go along a path that people of a previous era would not have if they had continued along their path, then we can say that their cultural age starts from zero at the point of the major transition, or shift away from an earlier and dominant mode of thought. This perspective for instance, and ed, is not borne of ‘Singaporean culture’ per se.  R

This is my first test video using the HD Hero Pro 2 - doing a quick spin around the neighbourhood....beautiful experience to remember. It is not the raw video but a compressed version. Not too bad. The Image Stabilisation isn't too good. But, passable. The colours, though, are rich, natural, and scenes are crisp - especially so in the original uncompressed video. If you like to watch it, you could select the 'hd' option. The music you hear is that which i played via my mp3 player whilst doing this video:) I added the same music to the video later. ed
