Nutty Professors on the Web
By Gian Trotta
Here are some professors we feel make class a blast: Purdue University's George Gobel lights barbeques with liquid oxygen -- with predictably explosive results. MIT's Fred Martin constructs LEGO-based computers and robots; Jim Zwick explores Mark Twain's influence on Star Trek. Theoretical physcist David Callaway likes to climb Mount Everest in his spare time. Dartmouth's Geoff Davis doesn't surf, but does explains how wavelet theory affects image transfers. Mark Roster and his rabbit Thumper leave us study tips and some SAT questions from hell.

Treat yourself to this great home page of a Michigan high school student who
grew up amongst cannibals in Cameroon while his father, a linguist and
theologian, studied their customs.

Jon is an Oregon-based fan of pirate radio, alternative power, and free speech. Follows
his links to learn how to build your own (illegal) FM or AM radio station. Then build the
equipment to power it with solar or wind power. Sort of the ultimate do-it-yourselfer
page.

| Mathew Ingram's long list of links reveals a soul who has surfed to
the edges of nuttiness and back. You needn't click them; just
reading about them is amusing. Wouldn't you know that in real life
he's a Canadian business writer?
