May he rest in peace. I watched Mr. Wizard many years ago when in elementary school. He actually made me like science.

I hated his show, didn't it used to come on Nickelodeon? Still, sad to hear of his death. Shows like his don't come on anymore. I have a 10 year old who loves science, she would have liked the show.
