Video is several months old, but this is the first time I've seen it.

FemtoPhotography. We are probably looking at the next Steve Jobs, or Bill Gates. The guy's an Indian, not the motorcycle kind, and not the woo woo kind. I should have guessed.

That's just cool.
Saw the very short version with the bottle several months ago.
Never the full presentation.

Nothing changes.  I use to doze off in the film room at school.  No matter how good and interesting the film, the narration would put me to sleep.  And Indian accent is like Somenex.

Haah. fyi noted. As for making you laugh, my pleasure. It doesn't seem to work with everyone on the forum, yet. Maybe you have a more refined sense of humor ?
