Thanks for all you do, professor!
The fact that he never replies has me believing him to actually be a museum robot that achieved sentience somehow.
IIRC he actually works in hospice care. I remember seeing pictures of his bookshelf and annotation system way back when he used to post on SBBH on Voat. He's way more organized than I am :)
Edit: I remember the hospice details from when Mick faked his death and Locke made some post saying how severe hospice care was and he knew because he worked in it. I could be mis-remembering, but that's what I recall.
Hospice care, eh? Bless his soul for that. I knew a girl who worked hospice, and she was so casual with the idea of death. She had seen so many people pass, held several of them as their heart just stopped. I'm guessing it wasn't easy at first, but she apparently grew a thick skin and it never bothered her to talk about the people in her life that were dying. She mentioned once that it felt colder in the room when somebody died, but I don't know if that is placebo or something really happening.

Well a lot of gases leave the body upon death, so it's possible being near one of them causes a chilled reaction.
I'm actually an orthopedic trauma nurse! I had done some voluntary work in hospice a few years ago - that was the conversation you're remembering!
I was actually interviewed in a podcast recently. Forgot to link that here.
Well, I guess I know what I'll be doing for the next 3 hours.
I haven't learned this much about history since the History Channel sold out.
He belongs to a museum!
