To echo that last statement a bit, before this years champs I didn't really have an opinion on the paper airplanes during Einstein/speeches, but being a witness to it in person this year I guess put it into perspective. It was kind of ridiculous, and in some cases dangerous. I witnessed one airplane with a clothespin clipped to the front miss someone who, let's just say, had the thrower known who they almost dome'd in the head probably would have thought twice (not that its okay if it wasn't this person). Instead it smacked the back of this persons seat and made a noise loud enough where the entire team I was sitting with turned and looked. Another one landed in front of me with some obscenities directed at a certain team scribbled all over it. That's just unacceptable.

Other then the airplanes, overall Einstein was a great experiance. I agree chairman's could have and should have been done between matches at some point, perhaps early on so the winning team gets those great seats. The commentary/random Einstein team facts were neat, and the match interviews are a great idea but seemed a little rushed.
