Dave Barber from MIT's Security and Emergency Management joined us on the show. He has been at MIT for over 20 years now, and worked in safety -> EHS -> SEM. Some of the things we talked about were
- The MIT Hack Removal Squad aka Hackbusters
- Dave's favorite hack: when they changed the Lobby 7 inscription in the 90's and he got to rappel down in order to remove it.
- Having tea on the Great Dome
- Steer Roast at Senior Haus
- Rush, 40 ft towers, rollercoasters, water slides, ziplines, etc. at East Campus
- The Caltech Cannon
- Emergency response models at MIT, stories from disaster simulations
- The current hacking climate at MIT and finding a medium between the two extreme stances on hacking
The songs played (all chosen by Dave) were
- Blue Suede Shoes by Elvis Presley
- That'll be the Day by Buddy Holly
- I Saw Her Standing There by The Beatles
- Light My Fire by The Doors
- Okie from Muskogee by Merle Haggard
- A Day in the Life by The Beatles

The music we didn't have time for included Bruce Springsteen, Beethoven, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Led Zepplin, Don McLean, Eric Clapton, and Steven Curtis Chapman.
