Okay, people, pet peeve time again:

It's a STIRLING engine. . . named after its inventor, Robert Stirling. Stirling. Sterling is a type of silver or fork and spoon or something valueless. Stirling is someone's last name. Please, at least give this guy the respect he deserves by spelling his last name correctly.

My team was filmed considerably during the NYC Regional as well. I didn't see us in any footage whatsoever. Whatever. There are more important things in life than being in television. Taking 60 minutes of footage is, by no means, extensive. They rarely will post long clips of anyone who's not well known.

Now, because it wouldn't be right if I didn't post at least one controversial topic -

Am I the only person that feels that, sometimes, Dean sounds very arrogant about certain things? I don't feel like listing particular examples, but sometimes, I'm a bit shocked by his tone. It's very condescending, seemingly.

Now, I've met Dean before at a few different instances, and I've never gotten that impression in person. . . and I've managed to talk with him at reasonably length, too. Maybe it's the direction of the interviews or something.
