[QUESTION] Kamal and biology

What's Kamal's connection to biology? We theorozie he's a hacker, but he says on his first date three times that he's a shut-in biologist of some sort. Is his job different? On the second date, he makes no mention of biology - suddenly, he's a hotshot hacker.

Kamal both likes to talk about intestinal parasites and "the only thing I know about eyes is dissecting them". Then Kamal implies he should have tried talked about livers rather then parasites to get his date's attention. Sounds like he was trying to talk about his work as a biology research grad student.

Most importantly, why biology? It doesn't seem to fit with anything else we know about Kamal the smooth operator.

Quote:
HR: Copy that. What did she say when she left?

KM: I don't know! As soon as I started talking about intestinal parasites: boom! Gone!

HR: I, I don't get it. That should've worked. It's right here in the book: Chapter 3, Share Your Interests.

KM: Chapter 3?! You're in my earpiece here whispering date strategies to me out of a book?!

HR: Its got references, good journals, and everything.

KM: Oh. Well, that's OK, I guess.

HR: OK, emergency action here: when she gets back, go straight to chapter 7! Talk about her eyes.

KM: (Hero?), what I know about eyes is dissecting them.

HR: Well, OK. It just says "eyes" here.

KM: I was better off with the liver (flukes?). This is a disaster. Nothings gon-

Kamal's a med student. That his connection to biology. Check out the transcript for four goats.

I don't see nay conflict between Kamal being a med student, and also being a bit of a computer nerd.

[SPEC] Maybe Kamal is using a Durga-like AI to do the hackin' n' trackin'. (And keeping her a secret)

Has anyone else wondered if maybe Kamal's using Durga herself? This would mean that the Kamal storyline is later than the Jan/Jersey storyline, but we really don't know for sure any connection between the two.

*note* I do not actually think that the above is true, but I thought it was worth it to throw it out there.
