About this listen

 In 1969, UCLA Computer Science Professor Leonard Kleinrock led a team of scientists in a project to get two computers to 'talk' to each other. Lo and behold, the experiment worked. . .and ARPAnet was created, laying the groundwork for the internet. Nearly 60 years later, Kleinrock is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus at UCLA, still teaching - and still creating groundbreaking work, including forays into AI. A wildly endearing, vivacious, witty intellect, meet the man I call "the Vin Scully of Computer Science" - a person that truly belongs on the Los Angeles Mount Rushmore.
