Too bad that isn't a national holiday rather than just a state holiday. He was a great man. I'll reflect on his humor and humility.

By re-reading the following passage from "The Clothes Have No Emperor" (p. 159)
.
http://www.amazon.com/.../
.
Which cites the book "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat" by neuroscientist Oliver Sacks and the following passage:

...One highlight is an account of oppositely impaired patients -- aphasiacs who can't understand spoken words, but do take in information from extraverbal cues, and tonal agnostics who understand the actual words, but miss their emotional content -- watching a speech by President Reagan.

"It was the grimaces, the gestures, the histrionisms, the false gestures and, above all, the false tones and cadences of the voice," writes Sacks, which caused the word-deaf aphasiacs to laugh hysterically at the Great Communicator, while one agnosiac, relying entirely on the actual words, sat in stony silence, concluding that "he is not cogent...his word-use is improper" and suspecting that "he has something to conceal".

"Here then," writes Sacks, "was the paradox of the President's speech. We normals -- aided, doubtless, by our wish to be fooled, were indeed well and truly fooled...and so cunningly was deceptive word-use combined with deceptive tone, that only the brain-damaged remained intact, undeceived."
.

Then I'm going to order a copy of "Tear Down This Myth"...;-D..
