We forgot to bring our foam 9 guys on the set so when we got to the end, we didn't have anything to throw- so Bob (our editor) took an ending from some previous shows and put it on there. The magic of post production

Nice show guys! thank's for reading my comment.

Actually my nickname should be m.yarrow from Miguel Yarrow, I guess can't correct it now but it's ok there're many meaningless nicknames around so I would live with "My Arrow" (it sounds funny hahaha)

I'm counting the days for the IC2010 finals.

Question about something funny I noticed on this show: Laura, are you taller or Paul is shrinking?

The three phone chassis should be named like the three somaotypes coined by Sheldon: Ectomorph, Mesomorph, and Endomorph. I want the fat one!

The launch of multi point server is cool and all, but I want to see what it was that could ruin McDonalds

Paul is shrinking! Haha, no. Actually they make me stand on an apple box so our heights are closer and we look more even in the camera. I'm not really even short, it's just that Paul is freakishly tall

You guys are calling out all our production tricks this week!
