He is currently raising two alligators and two crocodiles, and one of his gators apparently likes having her teeth brushed, and so she goes on tours through elementary and middle schools, where kids get to brush her teeth. My middle school experience seems kinda impoverished now?
His is a big reptile family - his son has an 18-foot reticulated python (which, I found out, are much less dense than anacondas of similar size), and his granddaughter, who cannot be more than six, is apparently already raising her own gator and a snake.
Anyway, this interaction was wondrous, and just made my day. I did not realize that you could keep alligators as pets, and I gotta say? Cute!
Shoutout to you, Steve, hope you make it to Florida this year!!

good ML:
* carefully designed for narrow contexts (or with awareness of context limits)
* designed by ML and topical experts, with expert curated data and expert reviewed outputs
* designed for specific needs and consumers, and kept up to date for both
* clear training / comms on use and limits
