Note that I am not proposing that AI research be ignored or less funded.

I am suggesting that we recognize that in network and interface research there is something as profound (and potential wild) as Artificial Intelligence.

And for all my rampant technological optimism, sometimes I think I'd be more comfortable if I were regarding these transcendental events from one thousand years remove... instead of twenty.

Right now I am doing my residency in orthopedic research.

I am a story-teller, and I look to academic research... for ways of augmenting story-telling.

I think I am less of a prankster and more of a jokester.
