Mike: I think there are definitely a few principles that connect everything; the idea of showing everything, I think is one. We try to just get it all out there; not to editorialize off the bat, but just put every single point on the map or put every single data in the display. We try to start from a position of great abundance and information, to show the vastness or the liveness. I think live, vast, and deep is some of the terminology that we’ve been using lately in a lot of our talks. I think that would probably be the most important sort of binding principle. A secondary one would a sense for choosing problems well.
