The same issue pertains to the Seattle start-up called pol.is which I will talk about shortly. They’re trying to work with the New York Times to have people deliberate meaningfully on policies, but again with strangers or with celebrities who are effectively strangers. With these two we have the closest collaboration by developing both the theories and also running the experiments that will scale them from the individual uses in civil society to something that would comfortably appear on mainstream media and have people which only have five seconds to still engage in a meaningful way. That’s the main direction. Any other thoughts or questions?
