    A certain species, both destructive and self-destructive, called homo sapiens often gets on my nerves.

    What non-human natural phenomena make you nervous?

    Generally not. One can get me ballistic either when I am very, very tired and in no mood, or, on the opposite, when I am thoroughly enjoying myself and somebody gets in my face with some stupid business.

    What is your best feature?

    In college we had a professor, Dr. Joe Schwartz, who taught chemistry, specifically organic chemistry. He was a very likable teacher who made learning the subject extremely fun, even demonstrating wacky experiments in class that would be very entertaining. He even had his own 1/2 hour show on one of the local radio channels at the time.

    Is there any place that you've ever visited that, in hindsight, you regretted making the effort?

    In short no. Even the worst places were interesting in some way, and afterwards we all like to tell everyone how bad the place was.

    Where is the worst place you have ever visited?

    Moscow. Hostile people, enormous distances, everything far from everything else. Prices are a separate story.

    White type of climate do you prefer? Is there a place with an ideal climate for you?

    Mediteranean, I guess. Never too cold, still not tropical heat. Back to Greece would be perfect.

    Do you like to travel?

    I love it, prefer short haul stuff and quite happy just going somewhere different for a weekend. Would rather have 4 short holidays in a year than one big one.

    Where did you spend your last holiday?

    Haven't really been on holiday in a while. Was in the UK last September for about a week. Nowhere noteworthy since.

    Same Q.
