Did anyone listen to the TWiT this week? Steve Wozniak is on and he drives a Prius.

If ever there was a person who would appreciate the Prius for it's engineering achievements, the Woz would be it.

Frankly, seeing Woz driving a Prius is a lot more of a testemonial to the car than Cameron Diaz driving one.

Yeah, but who'd you prefer to ride with as a passenger?

I must be a bigger geek than I thought. I'm happily married to a wonderful tech-savvy woman, and I find myself choosing Wozniak over Diaz. He's a decent person who loves technology. http://www.woz.org/wozscape/wozbio.html

Hmmm, Woz or Diaz... I like Woz and worked with a team treating amnestic patients at Cal. He actually helped fund the project perhaps 20 years ago. Real nice guy. I also choose Woz over Diaz. If, however, it was Penelope Cruz and Woz, well, you get the picture. I always go for the dark sultry types.

Somewhat ironic since his previous car was a Hummer

Been too busy but now I got to hear this one.

Yup, I've listened to every ep of TWiT. It's funny that Woz is still into various pranks these days. His cuting sheets of dollar bills w/scissors prank is pretty funny.
