Get ready for some “check the kerning!” nonsense about how the sequence is reversed to cover up Global Cooling.

This is the best TED talk I’ve ever seen.

If you liked the video above, you should also check out the segment that NOVA aired on PBS a while back.

The of the program looks like it’s still available online.
