Do you have much of a recollection doing the guest spot on "Dead Like Me"? Your episode was significant for Mandy's character in giving Rube a closure of sort. But your character was pivotal in facilitating that. Both of you were great in that one. I was wondering if there were any plans to explore/expand the reaper's community with more guest spots of characters like yours.

P.S. I first saw you in an installment of Square One TV's Dragnet "spoof". Remember the gorilla thing? What was it like for you early in your career? Any memories to share?

These are noble aspirations. But it seems from the way you approach the material, to be very resource intensive - as in material resources. I'm talking about test/measurement equipment of a full-on, hands-on laboratory environment with scopes, meters, and probes necessary to do anything of meaning. For a typical individual, the budget to acquire a quality microscope, oscilloscope, and other serious equipment is simply not practical. With anything engineering or technology related, there are few substitutes. Do you have any recommendations or advice for someone to either directly do or encourage further exposure/motivation to keep tinkering and "making"? I've found that in big urban/metropolitan areas like where I live, "Maker Spaces" have popped up where the creative and resourceful sometimes have an outlet for expressing and building stuff to some limited degree. But not everyone has access to such things. Ideally, what do you think should come before (as in best preparation) and/or after (to keep the spark smoldering) for your program participants?

Nuclear power. Yes, no, maybe?
