I love the piece he did for TED, where he starts out speaking about a dozen different languages and seamlessly transitions through them in such a way that you don't even notice that it's suddenly in English.

They don't mention reduction of carbon deposits on intake valves as an issue with DI engines, but suspect this may help solve that problem as well.

Edit: Sorry, just found out this link sucks, after the second track it goes dead. Loops of Fury is worth listening to in its entirety.
