Some really cool stuff, but I cut it short (it was a 9 hour book) because too much of it overlapped with ~~What do you care what other people think?~~ However, two of my favorite stories included the meme "Advertising is scientifically immoral", and the understanding that about ever two weeks, all the atoms in your brain are swapped out for new ones and somehow, they all remember how to do the dance that makes you an individual. Lastly, there's a fair amount of his ideas for and challenges to the community of nanotechnologists.
