Hola, Dr. Greene. I've been a great fan of yours since I was a little girl!

What's your take on Boltzmann Brains?

I believe Dr. Tasciotti and his group have previously coated silicon nanoparticles with white blood cell membranes. So, ninja particles with leukocyte cloaks! Pretty awesome stuff.

Dr. Greene, I am working on a book communicating science for children ("Icarus at the End of Time" is my inspiration). Do you have any tips on writing for kids?

I have been called obnoxious for suggesting that being able to learn several new languages (to a certain degree) is not particularly hard if your mother tongue is strongly related to the languages you are trying to learn; a context like Romance-speaking Europe.

I was wondering what's your opinion, or if you can relate your experience to this? You mention in your FAQ that sometimes you will mix-up Italian and Spanish, so I understand that it can have its downsides, happens to me with French and Portuguese (and my mother tongue is Spanish).
