She sounds perfect. I like people with a passion for science.
I like posts like this. I am both entertained and informed!
Why is that guy so annoyed, though?
A person being passionate about something is a good thing!
Maybe he just knows about the ‘Just so’ fallacy and he’s suspicious of even good-faith science communication being presented as narrative? I know I have that problem sometimes.

At least orcas don’t do to whales what they do to sharks - eat their liver and leave them to die in agony.
But is there still enough krill for the blue whales?
