What did you do before you mid-30s change? Was it scary to change course like that?
Don't we all rearrange or grow new dendrites? Isn't that how we learn? What is different about what birds do?
What are examples of parallel evolution with respect to birds and bats given the requirements of flying? Why aren't there any flying reptiles today (gliders don't count)?
Describe the effect that "white-nose" is having on bats. Do you think we're on the edge of a mass extinction? Why/why not?
Tell us what you find so fascinating about evolutionary theory? What are the areas of evolutionary theory that are being hotly debated these days?
Human population is growing and trying to control the ecosystem it lives in--how do you think the evolutionary process will factor this in; what new types of living things will emerge from this interaction?
Are humans done evolving? If not, what are the evironmental factors that you think we are adapting to? How will this change us?
Why do you like baseball so much? What are you thoughts on cricket?
