Sometimes It's Ok to Take Awhile to Learn Something

I recently ran across this video for TED Talks.  It's about how to tie your shoes...

CORRECTLY.

Now, me being the OCD, Perfectionist that I am, I felt I really needed to pay close attention to this one.

It turns out that, based on the physics and torque applied to the laces during foot movement (remember torque?) that there IS a right way and a wrong way to tied those suckers.

And while it look me until I was 6 to learn to tie my shoes by myself, I was quite satisfied to learn that I learned the CORRECT way...and hence never suffered from loosening laces like the kids that learned the WRONG way.
