  Some interesting questions and answers:

     [Q] Dear Mr. Metcalfe, First, thank you for all your brilliant work over the
     years. My question is how do you feel about the NSA collecting everything?"
  
     [Metcalfe] America needs an NSA, because we have dangerous enemies. Perhaps
     they've been over-doing it lately. I am worried that the current administration
     will destroy NSA in the current scandal.
  

  It is always interesting to hear a different point of view from a person in tech. Also love his sense of humor:

     [Metcalfe] Ethernet cables should be yellow. And that's that.
