I say this without an ounce of irony, learning surprising things is really really fun. And Gretchen brought that in spades.
It was so much fun to get to answer the linguistics questions of @TomLumPerson @CarolineTheBug and @EllaHubber, I could not have asked for a more excited and charming group of humans!!
