Oh thank goodness! Never had to call for my oldest two but my youngest would put anything and everything in his mouth. 3 calls in one year, I was sure the police were going to show up after the last time! Giant thanks for the professionalism & help each time & for not laughing that one time I called in a panic about him taking a bite out of my deodorant.

Thank you for your service. My grandfather was a paratrooper in Okinawa during WWII who earned multiple medals but he never wanted to talk about it and now he is deceased. So thank you so much for doing this AMA. Is there anything you can tell me about the paratroopers experience during WWII that I wouldn't find in a history book? Thank you again.

Has anyone decided on palatable names for cultured meat for when it is widely available? I love the idea but surely there is a tastier sounding name than "cultured meat". What will it be called at the grocery store?

The premise of a virtual reality world has been explored previously many times in the science fiction genre. Done well, it most certainly can be worth reading another author’s take on the almost endless possibilities such technology could potentially offer. Personally, I found Ready Player One just OK at best and undeserving of all the hype; but if that was most people’s first exposure to the concept then I understand it now. William Gibson, Neil Stephenson, and others were writing (better IMO) stories that incorporate the concept long before RP1 came out.
