If you could bring back one dinosaur, which one would it be?
If there’s one thing Jurassic Park taught us, then it’s to leave dinosaurs exactly where they are.
“Two species separated by 65 million years.”
Let’s keep it that way.

Attention, please
What makes a teacher great?
Teaching is like stand-up, except the audience can’t leave.
A good teacher listens to what is not being said.
A good teacher is a tour guide to the world, with niche interests.
A good teacher knows their subject so well, they can admit to their own ignorance.
A good teacher remembers their students are young humans growing, learning, developing.
A good teacher understands that being liked and being respected are two different things. And that liked and respected often overlap in the best of them.

Do you have a flag?
If you could have something named after you, what would it be?
One of the nice lakes on Mars, so that when humanity inevitably colonises Mars in the 2200s, and Mars becomes its own superpower in the 2300s due to continuous antagonism to Mega-Coloniser Earth, native Martians will holiday at Lake [My Name] and have long conversations over Pathfinder Beer that end with arguments about “Goddamn Terrans and their $£%&ing colonial BS!”
Martian Authorities and the Martian populace, however, will not question Lake [My Name]’s naming because the majority agree it’s actually quite fitting and gives the place a kind of mystic feel. Lake [My Name] will be known for restful getaways where Martians relax and recuperate from their forever-war with “those Terran bastards.”
