What an amazing person. I first learned about Clifford when he did his TED talk, and I was immediately a fan. The quote from the Hayes Hall Bell Tower resonated, and stayed with me, for all the years since. I'm deeply grateful that people like him exist, sharing their experiences and knowledge while still being simply kind and approachable. If you're reading this, thank you!

At 2AM on a rainy Oakland night, thank you very much, BestV.

That TED talk was a bit strange for me - I’d prepared a 1 hour talk: just before going onstage, they told me that I had only 18 minutes.

So I did what I learned in grad school: talk fast and don’t give ’em a standing target.

And the chase across campus? Yep happened petty much as I told it. Even now, in the middle of the night, tapping on an iPad, I can remember: All truth is one. In this light . . .

Again, thank you.

Thank you for the information. I'm sure there are a lot of people who'd be interested in the full 1 hour talk, if you ever find time to film it.
