| I met with Weigend over 2003 ICML in D.C. We chatted in the lounge of the hotel for a while, and he was quite an interesting guy (should I say) in an unusual way, in any cases, very friendly.
Later, when he gave the keynote speech for KDD'03, I knew for the first time that the hottest search query on Amazon.com is "vibrator" at least as of the time he gave the speech. Hehe ... I didn't know if everyone else who attended such an academic-oriented conference, particularly ladies, might feel such revelation appropriate; but I feel that talked a volume about his personality. |
