I’m very sorry for the childishness of my next reference, but a line from The Incredibles comes to mind; “…And when everyone is super…no one will be.”

And that’s a strange thought, isn’t it? Even those trend-followers will grow apart and mature into their own completely separate individuals. One may start a family; the other may become a professor. One may become a marine biologist and the other may become a raving lunatic posting comedic analogies on a horror website. Life is weird like that.

You’re descriptions of the wondrous things you’ve seen in your career were absolutely beautiful. I think that you should maybe one day (if you haven’t already) put those descriptions into print, because I’m sure more people would like to hear them. If you have written it already, kindly direct me to where it is sold so that I may give you all of the money ever in exchange for a copy.

I got just the most hilarious image in my mind when you described the woman’s ridiculous actions with the Humboldt. I could just see my brother out there, with a fishing pole in his pants, shouting obscenities and quoting Spongebob at the water whilst struggling with a squid. My eyes tear up while I laugh in my attempt to finish writing this. There truly is no room for goofballs in marine biology, is there?

Well, I guess that counts me out. I’m the kind of hydrophobic individual who will step knee-deep into a lake and scream “Sweet buttery Jesus, I’m drowning!”

If you don’t mind my further questions; you mentioned that you are working to research independently. When you do this, where do all your research papers go? Who funds you? Do you really have to work all alone or do you get a team? If so, who decides where this team goes and when?

I find you to be a very fascinating person and I’m very happy to have met you!
