Two things I’m posting as much to have them handy for my own recollection as to share.

1: I often tell my friend and colleague Dave Cushman that I disagree with him, and I also tend to be the plain English version of his slightly more long-winded explanations. But he seems to be putting across his thoughts in better and better ways, and this is a great example.

2. I hadn’t heard of Randy Pausch until after his untimely death, and although his ‘Last Lecture’ got picked up by various media in the U.S., it was only via Twitter and blogs I heard about it. Probably one the most worthwhile, inspirational, and moving ways I’ve ever spent 80 minutes. And possibly the best advert for academia I’ve seen in years.
