Seriously guys, go on youtube and listen to some of his lectures. He's brilliant, and really an excellent speaker. This video is a great animation of his lecture on the problems with education. Watch it or some of his other lectures and let me know what you think.

His TED.com talk was awesome. (I am pretty sure that audio is ripped from that talk)

That guy... speaks well. The animation helped make everything appear so visually. It was awesome. I'll be looking as more of his stuff now.

Many thanks, Fresh Cookies.

No problem. I really enjoy the RSA. They do a great job with this sort of thug. The animation, the brilliance if what he's saying, and the ease with which he says it, makes for a really great presentation, and an amazing argument for public education reform.

His voice reminds me of a certain narrator of some show, but I don't know who...
