LaB of email: @: That just gave me a great idea for new start for the NY City Triathlon. Your wave could load onboard an Airbus plane in LaGuardia, and then when it makes the emergency landing in the River, you can jump out of the plane and start the swim. It would be just like the start of Escape from Alcatraz where you jump off a Hornblower yacht into the SF Bay. Security at the airport would not be a problem since nobody would have any shoes when they board, but you would have to put any prerace energy drinks in 3oz containers and bring them onboad in a plastic bag. And US Air would get plenty of publicity

roger of ncw email: @: This is a picture of a bluetooth headset-camera. Talk on the phone, while recording full motion video. It is linked over bluetooth to your phone and then sent to your friends (either in a private conversation like a phone call, or as a video micro-blog). These will be commonplace in the next 5 years, and will enable much richer social networking. Imagine having a discussion with someone where they can see everything that you're seeing (or not). This isn't ordinary video conferencing (which happens in a fixed indoor environment with large, costly equipment). This is mobile, unintrusive video conferencing and more. Imagine all of the cameras that will be on and recording around town when an event happens. Imagine publicly linking your video and audio feed on an internet micro-blog so that anyone can tune into your broadcast and eavesdrop on what you're doing. If something important happens, you become an instant reporter on the scene. If something beautiful happens, your family back home can see it live. Other people can "be" where you are instantly.

Aero of Goleta email: @: Boop-a-loop, if the GMAT math section is anything like the GREs, it's really basic algebra. Get a GMAT prep book and it will walk you through all the problem solving you'll need. Good for you on the MBA. Will you still talk to Aero when you have more letters after your name?

Boop of NYC email: @: Tina - I'm going back to school to get my MBA. I'm a little stressed because this all came about a month ago and I've only got a short time to get my GMAT done and get my applications in. And I discovered that not having a math class for 20 years means I have forgotten all my algebra and geometry! So I'm studying like mad trying to get my brain to realize I learned this all a long time ago. ;-)
