Dearest Dr. Nina - you just need to try harder! Perhaps if you start
the conversation out in the direction of Botox injections for facial
wrinkles, a "hot" topic lately. Then with great subtlety and finesse,
mention the extreme difficulty of injecting tiny wrinkles such as
might be found, say, on the anus of a nematode. Then you're off and
running!

Out the door, perhaps

barbeque in the pasture when Nina moves to Maryland! Y'all are invited....
