Don't use the phrase "Platonic ideal" in a presentation. It just confuses them.

Unless they're over-educated. Then they nod knowingly and are impressed by your classical allusions. :)

You could always put the URL for wikipedia's (or some less error-prone place's) entry for "platonic ideal" into the presentation. Tell 'em to look it up as homework ;);)

I wonder what the Platonic ideal of a presentation would look like?

I'm sure it casts some interesting PowerPoint shadows on the cave wall.
