From the article: TANDY: This is it? This is where all the tech billionaires decided to live? LANGDON: It can't be. (stops a passerby) Excuse me, is this Palo Alto? Hilarious :)
Unless they were standing outside a whole foods or so, I don't buy the existence of "passerby"

Holy crap, the overdone continuous scrolling and animation makes that page almost useless. Scroll a little bit, and suddenly I'm jumped to a different part of the page. Don't scroll too far up, or it loads the previous article right in place, and doesn't keep you where you were. Then the top-bar seems to come down at random.

Earlier quoted context omitted.
Big Bang Theory is definitely not a show for geeks. Now Fringe, there's a show for geeks (warning the science may be slightly liberal at times)
