[344.00 --> 345.92] and that were how these companies were built.
[345.92 --> 348.24] And they were so personal too.
[348.42 --> 349.46] I mean, I think that's what-
[349.46 --> 350.22] That's what I love about it.
[350.22 --> 351.54] That's what I think we all loved about it.
[351.62 --> 354.02] I mean, it's like, you're getting such a,
[354.16 --> 356.28] you know, who these folks actually are,
[356.38 --> 356.94] which is great.
[357.56 --> 357.80] All right.
[357.86 --> 360.24] So mine, that actually,
[360.32 --> 361.00] I was a little bit worried
[361.00 --> 362.42] this one was going to get stolen in the first round.
[362.54 --> 364.08] So I'm not sure how many people have this.
[364.54 --> 366.28] Ron Minnick and Dr. Nim.
[366.68 --> 368.14] Oh, that's on my list.
[368.30 --> 369.14] It's not on my list,
[369.20 --> 370.36] but that's a good one that I forgot.
[370.38 --> 370.92] That's my number three.
[370.92 --> 371.18] All right.
[371.24 --> 371.44] Okay.
[371.50 --> 376.64] So, and this is using kind of plastic tumblers effectively
[376.64 --> 378.68] and marbles to emulate a computer.
[379.10 --> 380.18] And based on this,
[380.22 --> 382.34] and Steve, during the conversation,
[382.34 --> 382.68] you're like,
[382.72 --> 383.78] I gotta go find one of these on eBay.
[383.96 --> 384.78] And you can find one on eBay
[384.78 --> 386.32] for a couple hundred bucks or whatever, right?
[386.50 --> 386.66] Yeah.
[386.68 --> 388.06] I've got three kids under six.
[388.24 --> 390.68] One who I thought maybe getting towards six
[390.68 --> 392.06] might be appropriate for,
[392.64 --> 394.04] found it on eBay.
[394.26 --> 394.44] Right.
[394.56 --> 395.96] Well, so you should,
[396.42 --> 397.46] instead of getting that,
[397.70 --> 399.62] you should buy this thing called Turing Tumblr.
[399.62 --> 401.84] Well, I'm not buying that because it was $176.
[402.28 --> 404.12] Well, so Turing Tumblr is a lot cheaper.
[404.22 --> 404.96] It's like 70 bucks.
[405.10 --> 407.06] And it is a modern example,
[407.50 --> 408.54] but it's much more,
[408.88 --> 409.56] it's elaborate.
[409.70 --> 410.30] It's well thought out.
[410.82 --> 413.58] And so I bought this for the kids for Christmas.
[413.74 --> 414.36] Of course,
[414.86 --> 416.46] I think I've probably been playing with it
[416.46 --> 417.28] more than anyone else.
[417.56 --> 419.52] But it's been really interesting to watch.
[419.58 --> 421.26] I've got a 15-year-old,
[421.36 --> 421.92] a 12-year-old,
[421.96 --> 422.58] and a seven-year-old.
[422.62 --> 424.54] And they all got into it to varying degrees.
[424.94 --> 427.30] And it gets hard.
[427.86 --> 428.78] It gets hard.
[428.78 --> 429.32] And actually,
[429.38 --> 429.60] it was like,
[429.74 --> 430.58] I got one of the,
[430.62 --> 431.92] I think one of the four-star problems.
[432.04 --> 432.40] And I'm like,
[432.64 --> 432.86] I'm like,
[432.90 --> 433.14] okay,
[433.40 --> 434.84] four-star must be like the top.
[434.96 --> 435.44] You go to the end,
[435.48 --> 435.60] I'm like,
[435.64 --> 435.90] oh my God,
[435.92 --> 437.54] there are 10-star problems in this thing.
[438.16 --> 438.84] And it's good.
[438.92 --> 439.04] I mean,
[439.06 --> 439.46] it's like,
[439.54 --> 440.10] it's not,
[440.46 --> 441.50] it's not exactly,
[441.66 --> 443.26] it's computational thinking for sure.
[443.52 --> 446.98] So Ron's story was very directly inspirational in that regard.
[447.22 --> 447.54] But also,
[447.64 --> 450.12] which the way Ron was telling it was so captivating
[450.12 --> 450.98] about,
[451.06 --> 451.30] you know,
[451.30 --> 452.30] learning about,
[452.30 --> 452.56] you know,
[452.62 --> 454.74] DeMorgan's laws and so on as a,
[454.78 --> 455.40] as a kid.
[455.40 --> 457.44] And so I thought that was great.
[457.44 --> 458.84] Because his dad didn't steal it.
[459.02 --> 460.18] He was actually able to use his.
[460.42 --> 461.84] I hate him not stealing it from like,
[461.88 --> 462.02] well,
[462.22 --> 462.48] okay,
[462.54 --> 464.26] actually this is where my kids would like to speak for themselves.
[464.36 --> 464.54] And like,
[464.58 --> 464.72] dad,
[464.76 --> 466.70] you actually did tell us to go do something else.
[466.86 --> 467.36] Don't play on it.
[467.76 --> 468.32] And actually,
[468.38 --> 469.00] you know what you do?
[469.04 --> 469.44] It's pathetic.
[469.58 --> 470.82] I actually want a,
[470.82 --> 471.94] a phone.
[472.30 --> 475.40] I want actually a mobile game version of Turing Tumblr.
[475.48 --> 476.00] Like they,
