I have always enjoyed the company of persons who can change the direction of their thinking quickly in order to take advantage of the moment. I would have loved to have had Cliff as my physics teacher in the 8th grade. And I would love to have him on the same stage with Robin Williams. His first book, "The Cuckoo's Egg", is a fascinating recounting of his pursuit of one of the first international network hackers.

Have you ever wondered why people get drunk or watch sitcoms or television at all? Perhaps you recognize what's common to these activities? Without much effort you can probably think of 20 more things people do that are essentially safety valves to dissipate that extra time and energy no longer needed for basic survival. You will also hear many defensive justifications for indulging in these activities.
