I heard that report also, I thought they did quite well, except that the reporter was fairly clueless...

Dean was at the FIRST VIP reception (and the Governor's education Conference) Monday in Grand Rapids. Great to have him there although it distracted the local press. On the other hand, the press probably wouldn't have covered it at all if the Segway wasn't there.

What impressed me most about the Segway was that it really looks like the pictures on the Segway site, smooth, shiny, elegant. I'd have sworn those pics were rendered or severely touched up photos/concept drawings.

Now I think the real reason Dean built the Segway was so he could look Joe J. in the eye!
Dean stood on the Segway all evening. Maybe it was to discourage riders, or maybe it was because he likes being taller?
