"What is real? How do you define real? If you're talking about your senses, that you feel, taste, smell, or see, then all you're talking about are electrical signals interpreted by your brain." - Morpheus, The Matrix, 1999.

Applause
I had blast!
Finally delivered the seminar today. Things went pretty smoothly.
I used the LCD projector for the first time. I loved every aspect of it. I did all the connections, wiring, setup...typical geekstuff.
There was no technical snag. But my own laser-pointer defied me :(
The words flowed out magically. I managed to convey atleast 50% of what I was saying. Partly becuse the 2nd half was kinda drab...perhaps too geeky for the un-enchanted-by-how-things-work.
I particularly liked my end-note:
"Our civilization has always been struggling to build tools which help us to measure time. First came the sand-clock, then the pendulum based ones and recently we have these hi-tech atomic clocks. But, ironically we all - the biologicals have had, right from the beginning an internal biological clock which keeps time faithfully. And now this clock [pause] this process has become aware of itself !"
