Parrots, the Universe, and Everything

Here's a talk Douglas Adams gave at UC Santa Barbara in 2001--he's hilarious as always. It focuses mostly on his excellent environmentalist book, Last Chance to See. (The Geeks questioning him at the end are nearly unbearable, though--they're almost charicatures out of an SNL skit.)



Wish I could trade a few dozen Jenny McCarthies and Ben Steins to have Carl Sagan, Richard Feynman, Stephen Jay Gould, and Douglas Adams still alive today.
