I am thinking, is it possible to have a transcript of this interview? It is for my school assignment and my teacher requests that we provide a transcript for the video.

I think that Edison Hour is a great idea and I am going all out next "earth Hour" to brighten up my live, I think my mowing of my lawns at 12:00 at night might be a bit much, but I'll give it a Go. Besides I'll have more TAX breaks now to pay for it, And I KNOW NIWA's full of FRAUDSTERS.

It looks as if his left eye's pupil is more dilated than his right. This is a sign of brain trauma. I think we may have witnessed an interview with a mentally disabled man. Even so, we ought to be appreciative that he's supplied us with an opportunity of a livelier impression... "The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion, is that it is robbing the human race, posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by collision with error." --John Stuart Mill

I find you incredibly uncharismatic; bordering on repulsive. It surprises me that you'd be allowed to speak on behalf of ACT as you have. To everyone else, I'd simply remind you that these views are generally held by the leaders of ACT. They're basically libertarians - so they're quite crazy. Avoid at all costs.
