    This is extraordinary insight and I very much appreciate it.
    I just want to insert a bit of humour, if I may. This man speaks like I imagine Jeff Goldblum would in such an interview.
    Joshua Yaffa - I hope you understand this is in jest and I hope you laughed. Thank you for your incredible dedication to your work on this and many other subjects. Namaste!

      Only an idiot would say this is the best interview. It's most likely because you also say "uuuhhh ummmm uhhh ummm" after every few words.
      So in that case, I actually do see why you think this interview is spectacular. I wouldn't expect you to notice that because your brain is conditioned to it.
