Bill Nye spoke at the Texas BEST Robotics Competition at A&M University in College Park, Texas, in 2004. He was awesome when he was doing his introductions and when he was dealing with hecklers in the crowd, but when he got to his "assigned speech topic" the magic was definitely gone. By the end of his speech I would estimate that more than 50% of the crowd was asleep. Of course, the presentation was at 8:00pm, everyone had just eaten, we'd all had a full day of competition, and it was quite warm in the auditorium, so I cannot put the entire blame on Bill Nye. However, it WAS the best nap I'd ever had in stadium-style seats.
