This piece demonstrates the best of what science and technology reporting should be about. It is an excellent and well-edited interview with a scientist who studies how flies fly, and how to apply that knowledge to designing a flight vehicle. Too often, pieces that attempt to explain a scientific phenomenon are dry and confusing; not this one. This is a great example of what good editing and interviewing can do to explain a complicated thought. It was a delight to listen to, and I learned more every time I did. This would be an excellent addition to any magazine format.
