About origins? Amy is good, but some of her stuff is shaky - and her background knowledge can be quite limited attimes (I talked to her about Ebola a long time ago and I was shocked by how little she knew, given that she has written so much about it). But I think she can be trusted - so that's a big plus!

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

I'm not hopeful. I don't trust Betsy, and more broadly speaking, WSJ.

I also talked to Amy Maxmen at Nature - apparently she's also on to something -

I think we need the Bob Garry podcast. It's fine we don't have Twitter Garry, but I think the world definitely needs Podcast Garry... Like that German dude.

Oh, I agree!

I think we call it 'The Bob's Bollocks' (which, to clarify, means it will be ace). I think that would give a more positivevibe than 'Garry's Grumbles'.
