Interview The Person Below You

[Djibril]

At this time of year, the brilliant blue of the midday sky.

(In Fall/Winter: the brilliant blue of the midnight sky...)

If you could change one thing, what would it be?

[Zathras]

At this time of year, the brilliant blue of the midday sky.

(In Fall/Winter: the brilliant blue of the midnight sky...)

If you could change one thing, what would it be?

That I am not immortal and will end one day.

What would you do for immortality?  Better yet, what wouldn't you do?

[Talia]

I would give up my klondike bar.
I wouldn't: watch American Idol.

What frightens you most?

[cuddlebug]

I would give up my klondike bar.
I wouldn't: watch American Idol.

What frightens you most?

Spending my life alone, without having someone to love, a family and kids.

What do you think of first thing in the morning? and last thing at night before you go to bed?

[DKT]

In the morning, I think "I want to go back to sleep." At bedtime, I think, "I don't want to go to bed!"

What's the best thing that has happened to you today?

[Russell Nash]

My girl ran to me with a big smile when I picked her up from kindergarten.

What super power do you wish you had?

[DKT]

Heh. ALL of them. But I would be content with flight

Who is your favorite under-appreciated/lesser known superhero?

[cuddlebug]

In the morning, I think "I want to go back to sleep." At bedtime, I think, "I don't want to go to bed!"

What's the best thing that has happened to you today?

Weird, I expected 'sex' to be the answer to both questions.

(... I made black sesame seed ice cream and brown bread ice cream for a food party I'll have on Saturday)

No, that's pretty much the rest of the time.

I keed, I keed! (Mostly)

[birdless]

In the morning, I think "I want to go back to sleep." At bedtime, I think, "I don't want to go to bed!"

Kindred spirit!

[Talia]

Haha, thirded.

[Heradel]

Heh. ALL of them. But I would be content with flight

Who is your favorite under-appreciated/lesser known superhero?

Green Arrow.

Favorite living Futurist?

[Djibril]

Favorite living Futurist?

George Dvorsky (he avoids many of the excesses that give posthumanism a bad reputation, *and* recognises that science can't be practiced without ethics).

Have you ever seen a ghost?

[Poppydragon]

Yes

Hammer Horror or Schlok Horror

[Djibril]

Yes

So tell us more! (I always get the interviewees who give one word answers...  )

[Portrait in Flesh]

Yes

Hammer Horror or Schlok Horror

Hammer, because you get a much higher poofy-sleeve content.

Describe your favorite childhood toy, and where is it today?

[Poppydragon]

Yes

So tell us more! (I always get the interviewees who give one word answers...  )

  lol

About 15 years ago driving home from work about 8 in the evening (Cornwall, England, Lostwithiel to Bodmin) I was just approaching the last hill up to Bodmin when I passed a hitcher (male), I stopped a few yards after passing him to pick him up but he never materialised, when I looked back there was noone there, nor anything that I could have mistaken for someone. It was still light enough to be sure it wasn't the shadows and the verge was wide enough that he couldn't be hidden from sight... to misquote Sherlock Holmes, the conclusion however unlikely was the one left to me, ie that he was a ghost.

[lowky]

Yes

Hammer Horror or Schlok Horror

Hammer, because you get a much higher poofy-sleeve content.

Describe your favorite childhood toy, and where is it today?

My star wars toys and i gave them all to my cousin.  I know i had every single gun that came with them, I also know that he lost most of them   oh well he still got many hours of fun out of them

My next door neighbor had pretty much all the Star Wars toys (even the Tauntaun you could shove Luke into!). 

* Portrait in Flesh prods you gently in the ribs for the next interview question.

[Russell Nash]

Which would you rather receive from an old, long-lost friend: quicky email or an old-fashioned letter (probably written with a fountain pen)?

Since Lowky forgot to ask a question, I'll bring forward this one from back on page 3.  Somehow it got skipped over.

I would like to receive an old fashioned letter.  Receiving a letter like that, written with a fountain pen, was how I ended up with my wife and living in Germany.


What is the most important attribute of the girl(guy) of your dreams?

[Poppydragon]

Their ability to talk with me about anything and nothing at all 

Metropolis or Nosferatu?

[Heradel]

Their ability to talk with me about anything and nothing at all 

Metropolis or Nosferatu?

Metropolis. Can't wait to see the full print they dug out of South America.

Would you rather live in a Singularity or Dystopia?

[Raving_Lunatic]

I'd stick with the status quo.

Reverse spanish rodent river?

[Djibril]

I'd stick with the status quo.

Dystopia then?

(I'm not sure I understand the question. I expect someone sharper than me will...)

[Raving_Lunatic]

Yeah, a dystopia.

Don't feel inadequate. The question referred to the River Avon in Britain.

Best book you've ever read?
