In memory of Mr. Wizard

Don Herbert, who unlocked the wonders of science for youngsters of the 1950s and '60s as television's Mr. Wizard, died Tuesday at his home in the Bell Canyon section of Los Angeles. He was 89. (Click HERE for the entire article)

I remember watching this show on Nickelodeon when I was little, I think it ran right around the same time as You Can't Do That On Television... Below is the original intro to the show, which most of us have not seen in years, which taught us about that mentos and coke explosion many years ago!
