I'm big on my kids being conventionally polite, and it works really well for them.

I'm concerned about the ocean and the environment. And I love whales.

I was raised on comic books, and I love science fiction.

I'm generally intimidated by adults.

I'm a pretty quiet person.

I think neuroscience is obviously very esoteric, but I think there are aspects of it that can absolutely be brought down to the level of an interested 11-, 12-, 13-year-old easily.
