Are high bandwidth virtual reality simulations really the best way to reach out to the Middle East ?

... We can ask universities or local libraries or shopping malls to take these rooms. We've got the most amazing team of people working on this. You will walk in, and not only will you get the scholarly references, the computer banks, all of which are made more possible by technology, but you can also use virtual reality to see a small town in America, to have an interview, to listen to someone recite the Declaration of Independence, to hear a beautiful piece of music. That's the goal.

Apparently this will be finished within three months. That should give them enough time to program up some nice AIs to handle the interviews.
