But if I don't hold my hits, how will I ever grow out my chest hair?

I think it was a matter of exhaustion. They needed people there around the clock because things could go wrong at any time. You don't want the landing team to be responsible for all of the complicated scenarios that could go wrong after they've just pulled a 12-14 hour shift.

Was he joking about this answer?

I would probably know if I saw it or not. It'd be like "I know I saw this, but I have no idea what it's about."

To be fair, a lot of people have seen Memento and still say that. Lol.

A Pianist! Fantastic!

I'm fascinated to know if you write any music (if you don't - please start - like now, or yesterday)?

Somewhat counter-intuitively, I would think your disease might actually be incredibly liberating in creating music. I could be projecting here, but I would think the burden of perfectionism in creativity would be somewhat lessened - but without actually affecting "attention to detail". As long as you were careful not to repeat yourself in your own music, you would be free of that constant itch that - "Shit, this kind of sounds like song X. DAMNIT! I'm just ripping off Band Y."

I hope that makes sense - I don't mean to imply that your disease is somehow a "Get Out of Jail Free"-Card for Copyright Protection/Trademark Lawsuits (although...) but mean it more for the impact it might have on your creative brain.
