1. Do you like tea? If so, any favorite type or brand?
I do like tea. I don't know what type of brand my mom buys but it tastes good all the same.
2. Could you give us a typical day in the life of Gentill Abdulla?
Wake up, shower, brush teeth, change clothes, go to school, eat breakfast, eat lunch, come home, do homework, eat dinner, and go to sleep.
3. If you could go back in time and have tea with any historical figure, who would it be?
I would go back and talk to Einstein.
4. What got you interested in time machines?
When I first heard about time travel in the TV series Dragonball Z.
5. When you first tell people you want to build a time machine what is their reaction like?
They usually don't think I'm all that smart first, so I really have to explain it a lot.
6. What has the feedback on your project been like?
Mostly good feedback. Lots of people have told me that I was smart and they hope for the best. Also some kids from my school keep asking me if they could be the first person to go back in time.
7. What was it like to be on Coast to Coast AM? Had you ever heard of the program beforehand?
I did hear about the program before, but I had never listened to it. I wasn't really nervous on Coast to Coast I think it was because it was just explaining what would happen and how.
8. If time machines already existed, what do you think you would be working on instead?
I would be working on getting to places faster than the speed of light.
9. If you could have tea with any living physicist, who would it be?
Kip Thorne.
10. Is there anything you would like to add?
Not really.
