How does the theater determine who gets picked to participate in the show? Is it completely random? I had the awesome pleasure to join you guys on stage many years ago, and it was a total blast!

Hi! I love your enthusiasm for science.

My question: I was stung by a jellyfish a few years back in the Philippines. The locals told me that it was a box jelly, but I thought those killed people. I was wondering if you could help identify the jellyfish that stung me. It was relatively large with tentacles stretching about 4 feet. I remember it being mostly without color and translucent.

Eventually my entire leg was purple and covered in hives. 2 months later my whole body broke into hives from what people told me was the jellyfish toxins being expunged through my skin.

Additionally, i frequently break out in hives after going into ocean water now. Is this related? What happened to me?!

Firstly: All That was one of the greatest shows of my childhood.

question 1: Did any of the kids you worked with come in with or develop a larger than life ego?

2: what was your favorite sketch to perform?

3: Has being on the show ever had negative repercussions during your adult life?

Hey there. Thanks for doing this. I have 1 question in 2 parts: Waking Life and A Scanner Darkly are 2 of the most visually striking movies I have ever seen. How laborious is rotoscope and do you plan on using it again?
