    I will start by explaining what is the non-abelian quantum Hall effect, what are non-abelian anyons, and how they may be used for
    topological quantum computation. I will then focus on several proposed
    experiments that can identify these exotic particles.
    My talk will assume NO PRIOR KNOWLEDGE of any of these scary looking concepts.
