I also want to know everything that I possibly can. I think it's interesting that you mention fear, though if I grew up with a condition like hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, I would want to know all about it too.

My curiosity seems to stem from the desire to play with things. It's always seemed to me that almost everything can be tweaked or modified in such a way that something more interesting can happen. The world we live in is fascinating and yet, I have the feeling that there are ways to get more out of everything. I'm not sure if that's a healthy attitude to have, but it's taken me to some fun places and I'm happy to live this way.
