    What a treat getting to watch this interview was! As a BCBA working in a school, it was fascinating to see BF talking about the same issues I am facing in motivating both students and teachers, some 50 years later.

    Really enjoyed listening directly to Skinner, particularly him discussing that the technology of behavior analysis itself is powerful for all people.
