First of all, that was awesome! I'd like to think that at the 43 minute 25 second mark you were mentioning us Hubski users when you said that you had a whole bunch of friends on the Internet that you collaborate with. I was wondering if you could expand a little bit more regarding how speech developed according to Robin Dunbar? You mentioned that it is a byproduct of group expansion. Keeping the group together was a accomplished by grooming, but as the group got too large grooming didn't cut it. I'm not sure I understand how speech would have been the next most logical way to accomplish this.

Regarding the lack of a need for institutions once the global brain takes effect, I would suggest using less subjective words like "brainwashed." It's not that I disagree, but it's probably just a good practice.

I found it interesting that the people in the room were relatively quiet up until the point when you started discussing sex in the future. Nothing gets people interested in what you're saying more than talking about the future of sex. -Apparently scientists are not immune to this phenomenon.

You also mentioned that chimps have somewhat the capability of having medicine. Can you elaborate? I had never heard such a thing.

Lastly, should the day ever come when you can have an app in your brain and on that app you can support a scientists research by donating annually, I would be glad to be among the first to finance your work. Well done Cadell!
