Oh man, this is great. Thanks so much for answering, and for the even-better little-known fact. I'll tell all four of my friends about this.

Hi Drew! Thanks for doing this. One of my favorite little-known facts is that you publish sports photography under the pseudonym Brooks Parkenridge. How big a part of your life is that, and do you think it's something you would have liked to pursue as a full-time occupation?

Two questions:

How are you with context clues?

Did you even read the text? Unidan's name is Ben.

It was legal. (John Grisham's The Rainmaker is a fictional example of ways insurance companies made getting treatment impossible even when the insured should have had access to treatment.) It's not legal now, or at least not fully. I'm sure even under the ACA's "no preexisting conditions" clause a company or two will find a way to deny service to patients who need it. But it's not as easy for them now as it used to be.

A lot of people (myself included) are sensitive to chemical sunscreens. Look for a titanium dioxide/zinc oxide sunblock that doesn't include ingredients like octysalate or avobenzone; many are available at your regular drugstores. Also, you should be wearing it every day, regardless of temperature.
