Q u o t e:
Probably because he talks like a robot.
"FALSTAD NOT IN GAME. DOES NOT... COMPUTE."
I don't think that's his fault really. Keep in mind a few things (and those that have asked questions before will understand this):
Every person asking a question is standing there perhaps for the first time, with a microphone in front them, a very large TV camera in front of them and very bright lights shining on them. Then, add to it that as you talk, you can hear yourself echoing through the hall. If you wait for that echo to fade, you end up talking much slower than you normally would. It's a bit disconcerting to say the least for anyone who isn't used to that. Getting up in front of thousands of people to ask a question is unnerving for many people given those circumstances. It's not easy and I applaud anyone who gets up and asks an informed question of the panelists under such conditions.
Just really quick, knowing both Chris and Alex, I can say they were genuine that they would fix the issue. Perhaps their personalities game off as glib, but they are two of the nicest and most genuine people.

Q u o t e:
with the caliber of people we have here on the forums.
I see this statement pretty often, and yet you and many others are here and discussing this (for the most part) in a positive way. So if we're looking at the caliber, then we need to remember, we're all here posting too and I think I'm a pretty straight up person. ;)
I'd also like to warn those that have taken to attacking each other in this thread to please stop. I haven't suspended anyone recently, but I will if I need to.

Q u o t e:
You Blues are always so optimistic. I don't see how you do it. I guess I'm just way more clinical with humanity. An age thing maybe.
P.S. Not meant as a dig or anything. Just an observation
If by age thing you are saying you're older/wiser, I'm 38. I've seen the absolute darkest of people before and experienced my own very dark times both. I've also seen the best and brightest of people. Interesting enough, those best and bright outnumber the dark and awful, we just give them way too much credit and we're all so much stronger and better than that.
