Like we've been taught in schools and universities, in order to make a sensible good argument, we should suppress, spot then ignore emotions because they cannot be measured or calculated.
Emotions are elusive, in a scientifically dominant world, only material and calculate-able things count.
Almost everyone have watched Wael Ghonim come-back interview, a UAE-based google employee who disappeared for 12 days because of participating in the protests in Egypt.
After the video went viral, a Facebook page that was created to support him went from 1 fan to 50,000 in 30 minutes, reached 100,000 fans in less than 12 hours.
Ghonim's emotional words has changed many people's opinions. People were moved by his honest words in the interview. Now, in Egypt, people who were never interested in the fight are marching now towards Liberation Square, in thousands.
