I am interested in - do tell me about

1. Oh, I wish... floating on a nice airbed in the sun, mmm
2. Well, that's just plain nonsense, it's at least four thousand and seventy-nine kilometers...
3. Yes it's true, I've been a gas for many years now!
4. The heat would be true (since I'm a gas), the acid not so much unfortunately.
5. I know for a fact that isn't true, since it's the Mini-Mara that is the smallest!
6. It's hard to fight a gas, but apparently a lot of people are trying.
7. Well, I would. I'm a gas...
8. I don't know whether that means I'm incredibly stupid since the porpoise isn't known for its intelligence, or whether I would be highly intelligent with my IQ of 137.
9. Good thing I'm a gas then isn't it?
10. Being killed in a bath-tub most likely, like his (near) namesake Marat!
