Try working on the machines that make chicken patties. You. Cannot. Imagine.

Are you all healed up now?

What would you say has been the biggest hurdle you've had to overcome in the research? Do you often find your colleagues to be intimidated by the sharp teeth, or is the bigger issue all the problems one would expect to be caused by having a giant tail swinging around behind you in the lab everywhere you go? I'm sure the lack of opposable thumbs thing is probably what most people would expect you to say, but we've come a long way in our society in recent years toward overcoming such differences and making workplaces more accessible, so I would think that wouldn't necessarily rank so high. Maybe it's something I've never even considered. Tell us about the struggles a crocodilian such as yourself has to face as a researcher.

How many voyages would you say you were along for? Also, what's the worst weather you experienced at sea, and what was that like?

I've been on a few cruises, and there was only slightly rough seas for part of one cruise. The worst part was trying to keep your balance at the urinal. :)

On the others, you had to try really hard to even be able to detect that the ship was moving at all.

Is there a time of year when you're most likely to run into bad weather? Or more likely you avoid it?
