In Their Words: "What would be a dream date for me? Well, I am an official nerd, so it would most likely be walking through nature in some sort of way, whether it was birding or just walking through the forest — getting away from things, for me, is important. The city kind of drives me nuts. I need quiet." — Gary Louris
