Stormy Shippy - They all congealed into one; however, I can tell you my least favorite: Billy Graham.Feb 11
Chris McNosky - Billy Graham spoke at TED?!?!?!?! WTF?Feb 12
Ben Morrow - Definitely slower than a usual TED talk. http://www.ted.com/talks/billy_graham_on_technology_faith_and_suffering.html Man, 1998 is old school -- before the dot com bust. Its interesting to note the exuberance of that time even from an 80 year old preacher.Feb 12
Bryan Menell - On a similar note, I once saw Dr. Robert Schuller (Sunday TV minister and the famous Garden Grove Crystal Cathedral fame) speak, and his message was awesome and he delivered it stunningly (had nothing to do with religion).Feb 12
