Hank: An important thing, when life begins, is to keep outside out and inside in.  That's really almost the whole basis of a little thing we call homeostasis. There's a border between living and dead, between what you see and the eyes in your head. 

For you, it's about two square meters from the top of your head down to your feeters.

The largest organ you have in your body, yet if-[laugh]

The largest organ you have in your body, yet if I can see the whole thing, it's a little bit naughty.

[laughter]

Keeping the outside in- Keeping the outside out and the inside in, it's all eight pounds of your wonderful skin

Sam: That was good cause you gave no indication that you were about to do a silly rhyme like 'feeters'.

Ceri: Feet, yeah.

S: Up until then, it was so, so straight-laced

H: Well I was- I was having a problem, alright? 

S: Yeah.

H: There's not a lot that rhymes with 'meters'. And I wanted to talk a little bit about the sort of specifications of our topic for the week which is skin.

S: Sure, important.
