Does anyone know who the comedian is in the beginning

I remember reading a bio on Maynard and he does some standup in small clubs in california and was wondering if anyone knew who is talking in the beginning of the song.

Bill Hicks, a comedian. Influenced a lot of tools work. DL some of his stuff or look him up on wikipedia or something.

Bill Hicks, whom Tool dedicated the album Aenima to (an example is the "see you down in Arizona Bay" line from Aenema, which is a reference to his comedy sketches). End of discussion.

In what way did he influence Tool's work?
