Thank you so much for posting these video sections. I have been hoping they'd be available so I could share with co-workers, and here they are! Reporting what I heard just doesn't have quite the same impact. Great conference.

This material has been mind expanding. Excellent work. There is nothing like a new paradigm to open the mind to new possibilities and make sense of past failures. Thank you so much for your generosity in making this material freely available. As an old boss of mine encouraged us; give it away. If it has value, it will come back to you manifold.
