It is a well documented fact of life that women derive great comfort, if not cathartic relief, from openly sharing their feelings with each other. But men also engage in heart-to-heart connections, especially concerning matters that perhaps transcend the ordinary routine of existence. Today Prof. Andrew Berry and I shared such a moment while discussing my interest in the intersection of biodiversity and human health:
Dr. Berry: Speaking of conservation, there is an environmental science class focusing on marine conservation. You may find it interesting. It uses case studies on saving the large whales.
Me: Cool.
Dr. Berry: Do you like whales?
Me: Umm. I'm not sure. I'm a bit ambivalent.
Dr. Berry: Why are you ambivalent about whales?
Me: I don't know. They seem a little too big.
Dr. Berry: Hm you are right. They are a little too big.
-Silence-
Prof Berry: Well, let me know how everything goes..
