    • Steve pursued endurance feats including aviation (first solo balloon trip around the world)
      • Simon looked a different way to find Steve 
        • Closest search team and probably would have ended up 5 or so miles from his resting place, but time ran out 
          • Figured out through routine, as most athletes follow a routine 
  • Currently looking at spread and proliferation of colds
    • Looking for next big pandemic because that will affect us more than anything
