I spent some time at Stumbleupon and came across this old video of Julius Sumner Miller.
This brought me back to thinking about others of science who facinated me in my youth. I remember Magnus Pike, although I do not remember the show he was on. It was british.I remember Magnus became a bit of a celebrity in a music video called "She blinded me with science". There was another BBC show that had 2 guys on it, I remember the theme music and their faces but I cannot remember the show. It was way cool as they would take stuff apart and show how things worked and explain all the principles behind it. I remember they speeded up a l.e.d. quarts watch by baking it in the oven! Wish I could remember the shows name!
