Random Marvin Minsky story:
About 15 years ago I invited Guy Kawasaki to speak to a student group at MIT and he accepted. I was able to schedule in about an hour to tour him through the MIT Media Lab, in the evening. He and I were wandering from area to are when we came upon Minsky, working in a lab. Being a former CS undergrad from a different school, I was pretty excited, so I decided to go for it and introduce myself and Guy to this famous person. Guy said, "Wow - you're the Marvin Minsky?" Without batting an eye, Minsky said, "Wow - you're the Guy Kawasaki?" And then proceeded to spend ten minutes walking us through what he was working on.
