Very true. I feel like a few comments have said the same thing, but it's worth saying a few different ways.
I remember from "How To Win Friends and Influence People", the author describes how he simply asked someone a lot of questions at a party, and let them do all the talking. Later he heard that person thought he was an excellent "conversationalist", even though all he did is ask questions.
Don't be too adversarial in you questions. Simply asking some friendly questions that give the interviewer a chance to talk about their achievements and interests will cause them to like you more.
