I mean, jesus. I was a seventh grade drop-out. I don't know anything. I mean I read a lot, it helps having the cheat sheet for the universe on the backs of my eyelids but I don't - everything I ever say about what I can do, or what I am, it's 95% it just feels like that to me, and 5% someone else had a metaphor in their guess that sounded pretty good.

I wouldn't know where to start, really. And if you don't want to, it's not like guessing hasn't worked out for me okay. But you're - rigorous. It might be good to - look at it that way. And it might be a fun project for you.

I've done some. I've been on board almost two years, put together. And Doc- Doctor Banner and Doctor Cambridge trained me up to at least the equivalent of nursing certification. But I'm really bad at sticking to a curriculum on my own. The library has so much, you know? So...

Also, this is kind of a personal sideline, but what are your thoughts on, uh, researching me?
