Re: Kamen to appear on Colbert Report?

I don't know, maybe it's just I've never seen Mr. Kamen in a humorous role before, and this was a little startling. I mean Colbert's comments (albeit in humor) were borerline rude. Like "We could put a hemi in this thing" "Do the students build combat robots?" and then the whole thing about the mexicans was a little politically incorrect.

Just my own $.02..
Let the bad rep start flowing.
I believe the point of the show is that he is mocking all of the ignorant, single minded media shows. The humor is in the fact that he is acting and his "opinions" and questions are slightly outrageous and closed minded.
