    Episode 935

    Induction Charging
    While induction cooking never took off, it may well find another way into gadgets through induction charging, such as the Palm Pre (Episode 862), and the Dell Latitude Z ultra-slim laptop, which Leo is going to buy after Windows 7 gets released.

    New York City Geography
    Leo's wonky NYC geography in the intro reminds Dick of the television series Mike Hammer starring Stacy Keach in the title detective role.

    Born in New York
    Leo has always considered himself a native New Yorker, as he was born there, at the Women's Hospital (see Episode 64).

    Shocking Laser Tag
    In Episode 916, Leo talked about the TWiT Team's lasertag .comwars.  Young listener and fellow podcaster Christian Kaff from kaffcast.com has played with his family the Shocking Laser Tag, available at Perpetual Kid, which gives you a little shock when you get hit.  Dick prefers the game Shocker, but if Leo is to repeat the .comwars, he might want to try it at Governor's Island.
