Powells asks "Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Kelvin?"...Evison: "...If I wanted my kid to be a really high-maintenance landscape architect, I might name him Fahrenheit, but probably not." More.
The Inside Cover asks: "Captive-bear-feeder?"...Evison: "...for awhile I was volunteering at a wildlife refuge in Merlin, Oregon, which I totally loved because I got to be around all the animals; cougars and wolves and bears and foxes and owls and eagles and otters and beavers...the downside was, I got a lot of the dirty work—cleaning cages, etc. People would bring fresh roadkill in, and one of my jobs was to hack it to pieces with a machete and feed it to the bears, a job which I had neither the stomach nor the heart for, but undertook for the pleasure of the bears." More.
