My favorite quote from the article:

"He hoped -- and still does hope -- that the Nigerian government and his wealthy compatriots would turn to him and stop placing orders with western manufacturers."

I agree that quote was actually funny. Wow, kind of amazing in a way. I don't think I'll be getting into one of those. I guess to take off, just move the accelerator to 300rpms, and push the joystick, and vola' you're in the air! I guess since he's involved with physics, what goes up must come down. Better him than me. But overall, on a creativity level, I give him an A+.

Good article!
