For all of us that will be watching from home, there needs to be an n900 hat cam. Combine that with special name tags and AR software and we're in there. Every fifteen minutes someone else has to where it. I'm still thinking of penalties for refusing...

OMG real cool I didn't know it'd be demoed on such a large screen to mortals no less! What was the reply to the feature that there are subliminal messages downloaded from Google to zoom in to? Or was that the actual MKULTRA aspect of the project

My idea for attending the 2008 Summit (which I couldn't make) was as one of these.

I was already planning on getting zerojay and others to this Summit with a tablet, some speakers and Google Chat. Anybody got a propeller beanie we could attach it to?

Very cute, and normally I would say yes to this. But unfortunately, here's what I see happening: Spot, the n800 wonder doglet, would be just inside waiting to greet everyone. Our Fremantle star lcuk would arrive, not see him, trip and break his ankle.

Actually, El Coq is the nickname of a famous freedom fighter.

It is a story of heroism and tragedy, honour and comedy.

A very young French soldier during the First World War was known as much for his exploits in love as his impressive abilities in the battlefield. He became known as Le Coq by his fellow soldiers, both for his agressive fighting on the battlefield and for his string of women and his flamboyant dress off of the battlefield.

Le Coq tried to settle down after the war, but he just couldn't... He ended up, twenty years later, a celebrated hero but a lonely and sad man.

When the Spanish Civil War started, he went to join the Republicans against the rebels, because he had no love for the Germans who were supporting the rebels.

He tried to tell the Spaniards he fought with that he should be called "Le Coq" but, not understanding that it should be "El Gallo," they insisted on changing it to "El Coq"

"El Coq," as he was now known, fought bravely and very well against the rebels, but he was undone by his weakness for women. A beautiful woman in a town near where he was based, Senora Delilah, was secretly a rebel agent. She waited until he was asleep in her bed, and then summoned the rebels to capture him and drag him away...

That's what happens when you think with your "El Coq"...
