As a professional interviewer and reporter, I agree that the production values and the questions were poor. But as a form of marketing and a way to connect to the Nobel "minds" through the web, it's not a bad first step to a more richer program.
Totally agree. In fact, the BART board recently rejected an extension into Livermore, which would have brought down a lot of car trips from the East Bay Area into San Francisco. And a BART train through the South Bay would be great, as would extension to Santa Cruz, Marin, and Napa.
