Seeing as this is the 12th year, will there ever be an alumni game?

I met you at your last show in Philly with the Aquabats, but they messed up the show times so I missed you. I called you my white whale (I thought that would impress you) since I still haven't seen you play live (been a fan since I heard Space Game on your PureVolume page circa 2006). We hugged and you called me muscles and you sold me a copy of the Zombie Dinosaur LP! It's still in the CD player in my car!

My question is: How do you get these iconic musicians to record with you? It always sounds like friendly collaborations which makes them so fun to listen to. I still like your solo tracks though....

Follow up to a previous response.... Did the MC Bat Commander perform TGRK with you as you closed your set in Philly??? I would be very bummed if I missed that...

What part of life were you in DE for? High school? If so, which one?

Hello Dr. Nye,

Between growing up watching your show on PBS and sharing a mutual interest in natural sciences, dinosaurs, and lately, clean energy, I consider you somewhat of a role model. I am currently working as a mechanical engineer in product design and development, but am lacking inspiration for the work I do. I am considering a shift into high school science and math education in order to inspire students to take on the issues in our world today with science(!). Seeing as you have inspired me to pursue education in engineering and also as a science educator, do you have any advice as I contemplate this step in a new direction? My concerns lie in career momentum and inertia.
