It wasn't just Ken's knowledge, it was how fast he talked ;-) His delivery was that of a man on fire. It would have been hard not to share his enthusiasm. It's been years since I saw Ken speak but I've heard he has slowed down.

He still talks that way. I took him and some Microsoft people to a race in Seattle and he rarely stopped talking, or taking pictures. When he likes something it is hard to curb his enthusiasm.
