Back in September of '07 a friend of mine sent me these links. I just now got around to watching them. It's an episode of the old Tom Snyder show from 1979. His guests are Durk Pearson and Jerry Pournelle. I don't know Durk Pearson, but Jerry Pournelle cowrites with Larry Niven, one of my favorite authors. They talk about lots of stuff. The first part is mostly their ideas on longevity treatments and can be skipped. In the second and third parts they talk about LCD and plasma TVs, Pournelle talks about his computer and predicts the internet, and they talk about where they think computers will be by 1989.

Carl Sagan's old show, "Cosmos", is available on Hulu.com. I recommend the whole series. Shown below is episode 8 in which he illustrates how things would look when traveling at significant fractions of the speed of light, some plans for different kinds of interstellar ship, and time dilation effects. And he does it in a clear and understandable way. That's why this series can still sell DVDs and draw viewers almost 30 years after it first aired.
