If you were watching Cosmos tonight, you can find some of the Faraday Christmas lectures on Youtube, including the ones by Carl Sagan and Richard Dawkins. By the way, although Michael Faraday is responsible for the Christmas lectures, he didnt give the first two. He made up for that by giving 19 of them, including ten in a row from 1851 until 1860. Hes one of two people I know of who have two units of measurement named after him (the faraday and the farad); the other is Ohm, although in his case the mho is the reciprocal of the ohm, so it hardly counts.
