Thanks, Martin. An interesting speech.

Almost as raucous as Sacha (Ali G) Cohen's Harvard commencement address. ;)

(Did anyone else read the article about the visual depiction of information
in April's Scientific American? Included was a picture of Feynman's clunky
1970's van, complete with his Feynman Diagrams painted all over it.

What a true geek! :)

The article asserts that the Columbia Shuttle explosion was partly the
result of a "bad PowerPoint presentation" which crowded dozens of bullet
points under a maze of headings.  They contrast the fact that Feynman was
able to categorize all of Physics under only 3 headings.)
