If there was one person that I could attribute my interest and knowledge in science and technology, I'd have to say it was Mr. Wizard. I remember coming home every day after school and turning on the ol' tube to Nickelodeon just to watch Mr. Wizard. I didn't realize that he had been on the air for so long. I guess he started back in the 50's and ran through the 60's. His show was revived in 73, and then again in the early 80s. It ran for 20 years.

Oh shut up.

His grandson was in my 6th grade class. No molestation took place.

Ameesh is just a Bill Nye fan and hates Mr. Wizard.

Can't we all just get along?

"Then again, so was Mr. Rogers, and Pee Wee was a pervert. "

I resent that remark !

no one can own that. that is the most vile, evil and disgusting thing ever to grace the earth. diet coke (w/ or w/o lemon) will always own, because it is the worst.
