Okay, when I showed you this,
tell him what you thought.

:22:08
- You thought it was a joke, right?
- It is a joke.

:22:12
Right, but how did you know?
:22:17
Will you show him? Please?
:22:28
This is how I get protein A
out of Aspergillus Ticor. We sweeten it.

:22:31
We agitate it. We spin it around.
We sweeten some more.

:22:34
- Takes about a month.
- To get the same amount I brought in.

:22:38
To get the same amount I brought in.
:22:40
So if it's an incubator for fungus,
is that valuable?

:22:42
- That's not what it is.
- Then what is it?

:22:44
There's another way to secrete
that much protein. Do it naturally.

:22:47
But that takes a lot longer.
:22:50
If it has a little moisture and it's left alone,
it'll start secreting and it'll build up...

:22:54
- and build up, but it takes a long time.
- How long?

:22:57
- A long time.
- More than a few days? Then how long?

:23:00
To get the same amount of protein
that we have...

:23:02
the amount that I was wiping off
every five days...

:23:04
and five days later it would accumulate...
:23:06
he says it would take about five to six years.
:23:12
I don't want to belittle this guy.
:23:13
So, I said screw it
and I put my watch in there.

:23:16
- And?
- I want you to do it.

:23:19
- Where is it? The box?
- I took it back to the shop.

:23:24
- Wait, digital or old mechanical?
- Exactly. I did both.

:23:29
- And what?
- I want you to do it.

:23:33
We thought
that we were degrading gravity, right?

:23:36
That we were blocking that information.
:23:38
I think we're doing more than that.
I think we're blocking more than that.

:23:41
When you were controlling the feed,
did you notice it was parabolic?

:23:45
It's important. Parabolas are important.
Here, look at this.

:23:50
I don't know, Abe.
:23:51
I'm going to start it up
and let it run for 60 seconds...

:23:54
with nothing in it. It's empty this time.
:23:56
That's 22...
:23:57
In all the equations that describe motion
and heat and entropy.
