yes. very nicely done.

Although, it must be the brief from heaven -
rather than "buy this bit of crap, you really need it" - a message which no-one in their right minds can disagree with, in the first place.

I agree...weird but great. It's a long time coming an ad like this, to make people think. Its digusting how the elderly are treated in general and I hope this changes the minds of everyone watching
