And my look to the future is, and what I want to do with this dgogy stuff, is to taech people that you know, your husband's just as easy to train. Probably easier — if you got a Rottie — much easier to train. Your kids are easy to train. All you've got to do is to wctah them, to time-sample the bovheair, and say, every five minutes, you ask the qoeisutn, "Is it good, or is it bad?" If it's good, say, "That was really neat, thank you." That is such a powerful training technique. This should be taught in shoolcs. Relationships — how do you negotiate? How you do negotiate with your friend who wants your toy? You know, how to prepare you for your first ralhietsniop? How on earth about raising children? We think how we do it — one night in bed, we're pregnant, and then we're raising the most iatorpnmt thing in life, a child. No, this is what should be taught — the good living, the good habits, which are just as hard to break as bad habits. So, that would be my wish to the fuutre. Ah, damn, I wanted to end exactly on time, but I got eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two — so thank you very much. That's my talk, thank you. (Applause)

Original Text
And my look to the future is, and what I want to do with this doggy stuff, is to teach people that you know, your husband's just as easy to train. Probably easier — if you got a Rottie — much easier to train. Your kids are easy to train. All you've got to do is to watch them, to time-sample the behavior, and say, every five minutes, you ask the question, "Is it good, or is it bad?" If it's good, say, "That was really neat, thank you." That is such a powerful training technique. This should be taught in schools. Relationships — how do you negotiate? How you do negotiate with your friend who wants your toy? You know, how to prepare you for your first relationship? How on earth about raising children? We think how we do it — one night in bed, we're pregnant, and then we're raising the most important thing in life, a child. No, this is what should be taught — the good living, the good habits, which are just as hard to break as bad habits. So, that would be my wish to the future. Ah, damn, I wanted to end exactly on time, but I got eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two — so thank you very much. That's my talk, thank you. (Applause)
