They had an official there witnessing the flight, so I'm sure the appropriate definition of powered flight will have been taken into consideration.
Speaking as this guy's former roommate, one of the draws for him was that the aerodynamics and mechanics of flapping wing flight was not fully understood.
The science here is understanding aerodynamics to the point that a human-scaled device can be built.
Let's all go replace all of our TVs then. But that's expensive and wasteful. If only someone would sell a little box I could plug into my current TV that does these things...
Oh yes, and I would like to disassociate my thanks from anything beyond the posting of the video. The extension to the posters arguments against Nixon's policies DO NOT extend from the science on display in the video.
THANK YOU for posting this on a weekend, where I actually had time to listen to the whole 90 minute argument. It's very convincing, and very informative. This professor really needs to do more to get his message out in public forums (write a book?). I'll be sharing this video with my friends.
Oh my yes.

I submit the following conspiracy theory to explain the antenna situation:
Apple, in its efforts to thwart unlockers, knowingly ships a defective baseband firmware in iOS4, fully expecting it to be unlocked quickly. Apple then releases iOS4.01 with a new firmware, fixing the horrible issue, as well as the unlocking vector.
Sound possible?
For very limited definitions of "for all".
