  2. Great video. I don\'t know what to say.
     
  3. Yeah... the speaker is a little bit distracting. I think he has tourrettes, and you\'ll notice he has one or two subtle ticks. But he is also very articulate and engaging :)
     
  4. How long is it? I havent watched it yet.
    My initial thought was with time machines. If we could travel to the future and bring back technology from then, strange concept. The idea of time travel frightens me.
     
  5. It\'s 20 minutes and has nothing to do with time travel :p
     
  6. Oddly enough he is a pioneer in the speech-recognition field too :p
