Robert Baer was a CIA officer for decades, before coming in from the cold in the late 1990s. He's written a series of memoirs, including Sleeping with the Devil, The Company We Keep,and See No Evil,which was the basis for the George Clooney movie Syriana. His latest book is called The Perfect Kill: 21 Laws for Assassins.

We've invited Baer — who may or may not have been tapping our phones all week — three questions about bears.
