Zooko, this sounds to be one of the more interesting demos out there and one I'd love to see, if any of the allmydata folks have say, a Flip camera and wouldn't mind recording the extreme file recovery demo - perhaps even host the video on the public grid...
Seeing files stored across N machines, and another "guest" coming up to also "take Peters laptop out of the grid and simulate node failure through use of an axe" - it could be a good fun way to demonstrate recovering using K of N.
