During an AMA, someone might have only a few hours to sort through and answer dozens of questions, which means they have to read quickly and won’t necessarily have time to piece through a long comment to figure out what’s actually being asked.
I strongly recommend editing this comment so that your question(s) to Joan are clearly marked and at the top of the comment. And if you choose one or two of your many questions to prioritize, I think you’ll have a much better chance of getting them answered than if you have thirteen of them in a row. (Assuming that you actually want answers — saying that “you know the answer is no” implies that these are only rhetorical questions, which seems unhelpful for an AMA.)
Maybe this question could be the one you want to ask: “What personal preparations, if any, have you made in your own life that could help you in the event of a nuclear exchange?”
