[inaudible conversations] when i was growing up i read a lot of biographies. Interested of historical figures the computer field was young but already there were those who had done incredible work. There is a wonderful story that has done a great thing and i happen to believe the computer is the greatest invention ever. I liked history even before my machine that i had barely heard of with physical size is to look at the nomenclature of the switches. The industry has made bigger changes in a few decades than printing has over a few centuries. When i was a student at m. I. T. The computer took up half a building and caused tens of millions of dollars of the computer in your cellphone is 1 million times cheaper than 1,000 times more powerful. We are recording the events of this extemporaneously. Rarely in history do you have a chance to do that wouldnt you love to hear michelangelo talk about what it was like for the Sistine Chapel . It is important. That is what the museum is about to u
Longterm. Unfortunately because of the shortterm thinking that reigned supreme in this question of sustainability hasnt really come up at all. As i said before for all the money the International Community is spending on the Afghan Government to build the judiciary, the parliament to build capacity worldwide money is also going to warlords and strongmen. The u. S. Taxpayer dollars are still going to warlords and strongmen around the country and thats bad in and of itself but its also bad because it ensures continued weakness of the Afghan Government. So adjusting that will be the other aspect of the thing that the u. S. Should do. The last question im left here. You spoke about growing your beard out in getting a motorcycle and going and actually meeting with the taliban warlord. Can you speak a little more about that and were you ever afraid for your life at any point . Well you know, in 2008 in 2009 it was different than it is today. At the time the taliban headache coherent command
Martin luther king, jr. But with started looking at him as this very sweet man, that he was a radical. He had very radical ideas and he wanted to change things in a very dramatic weight in america. And, of course, he did in very profound ways. So this book restores the radical king. Im very proud of that and there were working with cornell on a brandnew book called Justice Matters which will be out in 2015, and which looks not only at racial inequality in america but really at justice issues very broadly, including lgbt justice, including economic justice, including immigrant rights, all kinds of issues which are so important in america today. So we are happy to have cornell back and thats what theyre important to us. And then we also are publishing books cheryl, her book, place not race just cannot. Shes a very wellknown black legal scholar and she is looking at opportunity and injustice in america through the lens of place and, of course, that means class. It implies class, where peo
Took them nine months to put together a memorandum of understanding how they would all cooperate. They couldnt even agree how to cooperate. That is always, rice bowls and stovepipes and always a problem in the government and are always a problem. Would i like to see export enforcement, particularly arms export a greater priority within the department and department of justice. Department of Homeland Security really wants to do this. I mean, you know, in terms of these operations theyre the funding source. They are the ones who sum ply most of the travel and all of the rest and department of Homeland Security as you know, think a strong and sincere interest in pursuing this. I think they could get more support from the department of justice, and i think, you know, part of the department of justice has many, many things to worry about. There are lots of different kind of crimes and everybody who is advocating that a particular crime should be a priority thinks sincerely his particular cr
Them . The level of tech letters a and this country should increase. People are still a little bit too confused about the level of tracking what happens behind the scenes on web sites. There has been so much press about it that you would have to be living under a rock not to know which is maybe where the Supreme Court is located. The jones decision was mine0 mine0. Not a single justice accepted the obama administrations position that we have no expectation of privacy in public. I will also point out there does seem to be an Incredible Movement across the country against drones. Many states, almost a dozen have laws limiting drones so i think we are coming to the conclusion that just because you can fly an airplane doesnt mean we have given privacy. To care about privacy people have to be able to relate to their own lives because we can imagine what it would be like to be followed by a drunk . These are completely great questions.
