Childhood Memory: Releasing the emergency brake on my father's LaSal. It was parked on a slight incline going backwards. I frantically began pulling levers and pushing buttons in an effort to stop it, which was taken care of by a chestnut tree 20 yards down the road.

Living person I'd most like to have dinner with (their treat): Carl Sagan (yes, I know he's not alive, but sticking with it)

If I had to eat one food every day for a month, it'd be: Asian

Something people don't know about me: You still don't know
