This is a sad day indeed. 'Mr. Wizard' was one of my most favorite shows when I was younger. It was on his show I first saw the straw through the potato demo and he was using paper straws then. It may have been his demos on elelctricity that really got me started in experimenting and now to think of it, television. Pretty hard to demo some things in black and white. Long live his memory!
