Great Good Guy. Belonging to an underdeveloped country myself, I cannot but support this man, and be thankful.

Must have been all an experience to have him there, uh? wow.

Nicholas was uncharacteristically low key. But I have only seen him doing speeches before, so I really don't know him personally. Though his vision came through with quite a bit of passion as he spoke, he's probably a bit tired because he is currently traveling around the world every three weeks to promote the project. He was only in his home town of Cambridge, MA (and MIT) for 11 days last year!

=( poor Nicholas!...

The common thought that people like him have a wonderful time -always- with their occupation is sometimes so mistaken, y´know. We all get tired and overwhelmed with our activities... more if you are meant to be far from home 354 days per year!

This definitely highlights the importance of the mission he is up to. Great people to jot down as role models... to me at least.

Thanks for sharing!
