This is one of those threads that needs an "I am here" button because it is all over the map.

Discussing the entertainment side of things - Will.i.am has continued to show interest and a great deal of curiosity in the science and technology side of things. I'm not familiar with Chuck Norris's interest or Madonna's, or, for that matter, many of the folks that Will.I.Am brought on board with him last year. Maybe at this point, it doesn't matter. Maybe a big name star is enough - I really have no idea. It would be great to see a panel of big name writers, directors, special effects folks who love the continual development of technology and robotics and how that helps them fulfill their visions/dreams/goals. Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, Godzilla, Avatar - that would be cool. It would also be cool to have a panel of the animators from Pixar visit and talk about old times and current times. It would also be interesting to have a panel of doctors who work closely with robotics in surgical procedures.

There are lots of wonderful people that could entertain/inform us in ways that we can only dream of and imagine.
