[offthelisthero]

Mohinder broke off to write a list - Challenge, Communication, Education, Energy, Entertainment, Food, Oxygen, Shelter, Transport, Warmth, Water - on the board behind him, and asked the clsss to consider how they'd rank their importance, before going on with the lecture.

Listen, take notes, etc..
