Thank you for answering! And it's great to hear that such a funny actor happens to be a funny guy as well!

What do you think of the future prospects of DNA computing?
Is there any discussion of ethics in computer science at MIT? Do you think it's important?
What's the best way men in computer science can improve the situation for women in computer science?
Do you have any particular role models? Do you think role models are important or useful?
Jean, can you tell me more about your verification work? (I've done some work on probabilistic model checking and am interested in verification generally)
Thanks!

How important do you feel ethics are in computer science? Who are the big voices in that topic at the moment?

Damn it, I wrote a long question and it got lost somehow. This is the short version:
1) Your research profile blurb thingy is great - favourite Black Sabbath album and have you seen them live?
2) Do you think a computer scientist can successfully balance theory and applications in a research career? Any tips for that (for someone who'll start a PhD this October and mostly has experience in theoretical research up to now)?
3) Microsoft Research seems like a really positive thing for research-level computer science to me. Do you think it's a good model? Will there be more (or fewer or the same) places like that 10 years from now?
4) I've never seen any Seinfeld.
5) Oh yeah and how did you survive grad school?
