Clifford Stoll, among many other things, is the most eccentric and energetic presenter I’ve ever seen. I can’t recall seeing so many topics (not) talked about, a real experiment to measure the wavelength of sound, and a valuable life lesson wrapped into a single presentation.
Like all things TED, this simply shouldn’t be missed. Better than any TV channel out there.

I met Cliff years ago and had a nice discussion with him.. I have audio from his presentation at Dayton about 8 or so years ago.

James: That had to be interesting. Is he anything in real life like he is in this TED talk?
