Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written
language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through
audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio
while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using
a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Leconotide (INN) (code names CNSB004, AM336), also known as ω-conotoxin CVID, is an ω-conotoxin peptide isolated from the venom of Conus catus which is under investigation as an analgesic drug for the treatment of pain conditions.It acts as an N-type voltage-gated calcium channel (Cav2.2) blocker, and is highly selective for this channel over the related P/Q-type voltage-gated calcium channel (Cav2.1).Relative to ziconotide, leconotide is advantageous in that it is significantly less toxic, and for that reason can be administered intravenously as opposed to via intrathecal injection.
