I support Dr. Zubrin and his ideas as much or more than anyone. But he does something that hurts his television appearences and public presentations.
He blinks too much.
When Arnold Shwartneggar was running for governor, a campaign consultant happened to mention that one of his great strengths was that he rarely blinked. The consultant also pointed out that President Bush had trained himself not to blink during an entire 30 second sequence (try it, its hard to avoid).
The consultant said that studies show that lack of blinking calms an audience and reassures them while excessive blinking unnerves people.
Perhaps it would help Mars Direct if Dr. Zubrin would blink less.
Can't hurt.

He can try it. I’ve heard that criticism before. I think it is more important for him to be natural then act. I would rather Zubrin be conformable, then have dry eyes and be uncomfortable. Maybe eye drops and muscle relaxes before television would help.

Sad that such a small thing can hurt the message of such a great man.

Ahhh, soon enough they will have computer programs to filter out blinking in real time. I think the message is much more important then the presentation. I’m all for content over flash.

No, it's a good thing, at least if you got a brain. The discrepancy between a behaviour that in shallow ways could be interpreted as insincere, contrasted with the obvious and total sincerity of this man makes people think. Like Frodo says, "an agent of the enemy would I think look fairer and feel fouler, if you see what I mean."
