May 24, 2009 - This video is conclusive proof that science can and does appeal to a larger crowd than Hollywood and churches would like to think. Nicely done!

May 24, 2009 - Lol! :) The only problem is that you did the math, but not the acoustics. :) The speakers in a theater are typically surround sound and thus he would need to sit nearest the speaker with the most relevant audio content ... ok I even bored myself with this comment. I will shut up now.

Jun 14, 2009 - 186000 miles per second, 3.00 x 10^8 meters per second. He wasn't using the metric. It doesn't make him inaccurate, it means he wasn't using the metric. Since there is a way to turn miles into meters, it's just as accurate (ignoring rounding, which wouldn't be that big of a problem considering he's a comedian and not an astrophysicist...).
