The best thing about my job right now is watching a baby, baby squid. It's hilarious because these little squid that are maybe like a quarter of a marble in size will tackle these big shrimp. And then they stretch all their stupid little arms around the shrimp body and it cracks me up. I forgot to ask you entirely how can people get involved with Skype a scientist? Basically, it's a program where we match up scientists and either classrooms or groups of adults that like learning so that they can have 30 to 60 minute question and answer sessions with a scientist.
Squids. Cuttlefish. Octopusseseses. The world's most impassioned squid nerd, Sarah McAnulty, gets locked in a basement with Alie to talk about cephalopods, alien DNA, camouflage, invisibility cloaks, why cute things make us insane, terrible mating strategies, cute and clever ones and why she is so charmed by squid. Also addressed: Philly accents and the Kraken.
