Me: Thank you for taking the time today to sit and chat.
Wolfram de Walt: The pleasure is mine.
M: How do you respond, knowing that after only 4 days of work on the site, you are the favourite, can I say tool?
W: I'm not comfortable with that assignment.
M: How about 'Power Tool'?
W: No.
<awkward silence>
M: The rumour of your birth is that your father was a chainsaw and your mother was an electric carving knife. It must have been difficult growing up in such a diverse family.
W: It's true, my father would constantly roast my mother for her upbringing.
M: I hear you're seeing the angle grinder? How is that working out?
W: It started out as a dental arrangement but its become more serious. She keeps me sharp, you know.
M: So far you've cut through a lot of old constraints. What would you say has been your favourite thing to slice?
W: Without bragging, I can cut through wood like butter. Today I cut my way through steel nails...
M: Like butter?
W: *sigh* I sawed the old rotary clothes line, its drying days are over. But the most delicious so far has been the earth wire.
M: Impressive work.
W: Thank you.
