TAM4 DVD goofs

Having enjoyed TAM5 so much, I bought the TAM4 DVDs, and I've been playing them on my computer while working in the evenings. (I'll have to dig back through the forum archives and see what people wrote about TAM4 last year.)

I was watching the "Science in Politics..." panel discussion this evening, and I noticed the most amazing thing. Every so often the camera pans across the audience for a reaction shot, and lo and behold, Leon Jaroff is clearly sitting in the front row of the audience, watching himself on the panel! Either his twin brother was there, wearing the same clothes, or he has invented a pocket teleportation device and was jumping back and forth. I can think of no other possible explanations.

Whoever is working on the TAM5 DVDs might watch for this. And while I'm making suggestions on the DVDs, it would be nice to see the presenters' slides when they are talking about them, which was spotty in the TAM4 DVDs. Even if the camera didn't pan over to the screen, you can insert those slides from the speakers' powerpoint files.

I would do the same thing. I always listen to what I'm saying.
