Have you ever wondered why some people feel like Death in the morning, and others are Mary Freakin' Sunshine by 6am? Did you know Dr. Karl thinks school should start at 11am? Listen here: http://www.nowfm.com.au/stuff/drkarl.mp3When I heard Dr Karl Kruszelnicki was heading my way I thought I'd Youtube some of his TV series Sleek Geeks in preparation. The 'research' didn't do me any good as I found him to be far more precise and methodical in person, explaining each qualifying step before getting to the center of a problem. He made quite an effort to help me understand the science, even spending 10 minutes explaining and re-explaining the 'Even Horizon' of a black hole in layman's terms for the benefit of my ham sandwich intellect. My idea of throwaway questions was out, so I decided not to waste his time and ask two tricky listener’s questions: Why do I always wake up tired? And What’s inside a black hole?
