Happily the speech is archived at the above url. It's an hour and unfortunately the videographer didn't show the slides, but Jay explains them quite clearly. I hope this gives more credibility to what I've been writing about.

For those of you who live near Grand Haven, MI, I'll be giving a couple of talks there on April 18th. I'll post the specifics when they're in place.
i read his paper. i listened to his presentation based on your link. i'm not convinced and will withhold judgement until he publishes his 2nd paper for peer review. exercise is good for general health benefits, no doubt about that. but basically if it seems too good to be true, it often is.
