“No one wants to hear about your special interest—” I do. Tell me all about how the Appalachians are older than Saturn’s Rings or how the invention of the compass led to the atomic bomb. Life is so brief and the world is so big and we have to learn from each other.

A slight change has been made to the inclusion criteria for my study, and I've done away with the age range.
