While I wait to bring readers my own interview with Alton Brown, we will have to settle for this 2003 article in a magazine about eye glasses recently uncovered. 
In it, Alton talks about his glasses. Okay, does that mean I'm way, way too much of a fan if I care about his glasses? I don't know... that's a fine line. ;) Let's just call it an interesting read for some trivia tidbits or I'm interested because I wear glasses too, yeah that's the ticket.
Not sure if I've read this before, as a long time fan things are starting to blur together (no pun intended... okay, pun intended).
I'm pretty certain I have not read it before because AB mentions when he started wearing glasses and that he is myopic and has a "nasty astigmatism." I know I would have remembered that because that's what I have a very nasty astigmatism in my right eye. I joke, I need to wear a monocle because my left eye is fine. And don't you just know, one day I was at work and the left lens popped out of my glasses... I wore them all day not realizing the lens was gone! I felt like a huge dork.
Anyway, enough about my vision problems. Here's the link to the article from 20/20mag.com: Alton's part is at the very end. Yeah, its a wee bit dated with the info on when Good Eats airs, oh well.
I liked the part about how loyal fans can tell seasons by looking at AB's frames. So, so gulity of that.

I share the myopic part. I don't have to wear my glasses all the time, but I wear them for driving & anything in which I need "binoculars." ;) My last two frames I've really loved. My current ones are purple CK's & my previous frames were blue metal (which eventually started to flake, alas).
