TRANSCRIPT:
It may sound perhaps a little trivial, but the benefit of mankind, frankly speaking. The problems of the world, if you step back and truly take a global look, our lives are fabulous in comparison to most of the world's problems. Access to basic drinking water, access to a basic education -- those two fundamentals -- and then add food into the mix. We take those things so much for granted in this country. Then we argue about, "Well, I want the best education. I want the purest drinking water. I want to have electricity at the flick of every switch."
We take those things so much for granted we don't realize how much they mean to us unless we're actually without them. As soon as a big storm hits, whether it's a nor'easter on the East Coast or a big monsoon in Arizona takes the power out, you're quickly brought back to the basics. And technology enabled those basics for us and can do a lot. I would like to see us apply some of those fundamentals to the rest of the world.
