We're thinking we're going to stay up all night until we get to solving the problem.

So we all sit down and as soon as we start talking, I don't know that we finished the first sentence.

And he says, can you stop for a minute?

And he says, can everybody else in the room leave from the executive team other than KR?

And so I have this group of illuminaries sitting on the other side.

And me sitting on this side, it almost looks like a firing squad.

And he says, what's wrong?

So I begin to explain what I think may be wrong.

He says, no, no, no, stop.

What's wrong?

I say something else, thinking that I didn't get through to him properly.

And after the third time, he's like, K.R., just leans over and he says, I want to know what's wrong with you.

And it shocks me.

It just shocks me for a moment.

I sit back and I go,

I'm trying to build a great device that's going to be beneficial to people.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

And he says, you're such a smart guy.

If you walk the floors and talk to the people out there, they are going to tell you why it's not working because they don't understand what they're building.
