Fascinating interview. This guy's words should be resounding throughout the internet in tech circles. There is a new ergonomic kind of adaptation to getting a product to market--ergonomic in getting that kind of intellectual team input that builds and oils the roadway to bringing something unique to commercial world. Find brilliant, misunderstood lawyers fresh from the bar test, and civil engineers, and that branch of business involving marketing planning. Do like George Lucas--get fresh talent.

....meaning unknowns that know exactly what you are talking about. Their incentive is to be part of a commercial block around product or products. I eagerly await interview 3 and what kind of outcome emerged. Five stars. Excellent.

I think that it's an interesting point he makes at the end that scientists are their own insular world. I think that does society as a whole a great disservice. Granted that most people won't or don't think at the same level that most people who are involved in the sciences do, but that doesn't mean we can get them excited about the prospects that science can provide. If you can't capture the public imagination, all the research in the world won't matter if it won't be used.
