Comments

"The day we made the first Segway, the very first one, we drew pictures of enclosed ones. Going back and tweaking things to make them 5% better or 3% cheaper? There are whole industries who know how to do that very well. Our position is been there, done that, did it, changed the world, move on."

He does not seem to understand that cost is the number one factor for all inventions. An immortality pill that costs 2trillion is not going to sell to anyone.
