Hi Ovid,

I guess that it all depends on the level of your audience but I was thinking of something along the technical line of things. One idea which would appeal to me as a fairly lowly programmer would be a talk on the philosophy of programming and program structure in a general sense (rather than purely related.) This sort of steps around the problem of the level of their perl by hopefully moving onto a subject that will contain something new for everyone, even the CS grads - I certainly wouldn't mind knowing more about, say, the distinctions between functional, declarative, imperative and OO programming (preferably with examples, humorous anecdotes etc...)

Anyway, good luck - must be off to bed. Elgon
