Eric is a notable public speaker and master salesman. He is also a quick study to anything he sets his mind to. I have seen him speak live just a few times, but for me the most notable was when he was asked to present on the future of television and special effects for FujiTV in Tokyo. He'd only been CEO of Kerner Optical (one of the companies that made special effects for Star Wars) for just a few years at that time, and many in the audience had worked in the industry for decades, and yet he was so well positioned, but also somehow already so knowledgeable about the industry, that he was more than adequate in answering all of the questions from the curious audience. I lived in Japan 12 years, and I never saw a room of Japanese professionals that lively and active during the Q&A section of a talk.

Recently, googling him, I noticed some of the search results were filtered here in Canada with:

Some results may have been delisted consistent with local laws

Although I don't agree with 100% of his ideas, I have found we have been converging more and more as of recent, whether it's related with diet, importance of freedom of speech, business, and world politics. So I'm very curious about what local laws he was not compliant with. My guess is they were the kind that some conspiracy theorists might call totalitarianism, but I haven't lost all faith in the Canadian government just yet. But I would definitely characterize many of the laws and government action pertaining to media, and also freedom of demonstration as having severe overreach. I guess we'll find out (or worse we won't).
