I was kidding about the TI project, but not so much about the probably
enthusiastic dreams about a cool hack by almost everyone out here.  Robert's
never said he will or will not do something "product-ish" with it but we've
all helped him design the non-existent product.

Personally, I'd like to hear more from him and less from us.  Maybe Henry @
Reactive could talk him out of the design and code and turn it into a
product.

Sorry for pouring a little water on the fire, but let's let Prometheus enjoy
his smores.
