Especially as some of us regulars have met a couple of staff at 3Rooms events. I think that the Three Speech staff should say who they are when replying to comments.

It is definitely not known that a quantum computer will give us an exponential spped-up compared to a classical computer for any general class of problems, even though wikipedia almost says so.
