Very funny on the big screen. Damn scary in real life. Charles Martel - excellent script. I am now thinking of a new career - as a  ' magnetician'.  Yes, I'd be happy to explain. You take your handy-dandy magnet, available at your local hardware store,  run it over and around the head to see if any screws are loose.     Nathan, thanks for jolting my memory and the clip from the film.

The next time you're chatting, why not mention Dr. Darrell Isinglass from the University of Cambridge, who has just been named by the Obama administration to help out at HHS? Mr. Book: "Who's he?" Book: "Nothing less than the most highly acclaimed expert in his field. He's been a star at international conferences for almost 30 years and is the first expert the New York Times turns to when it needs a quote about his specialty." Mr. Book: "Wow, a star! How many degrees did you say he has?" Book: "Gosh, at least 14 or 15, including diplomas from the University of Heidelberg and Schleswig-Holstein. The New School has honored him, too, as well as Antioch College." Mr. Book: "My kind of guy!" . . . . . . . . . . Mr. Book: "Say, what field did you say he's in?" Book: "Oh, he's a phrenologist." Mr. Book: "You're kidding, aren't you?" Book: "No, why?" Mr. Book: "Phrenology is a pseudo-science with no practical application in the real world." Book: "So? You've already said that doesn't matter." Mr. Book: "When did I say that?" Book: "After you told me about this brilliant guy you heard at an Ivy League conference who gave advice that you said wasn't usable in the real world. But then you said that didn't matter because he was billiant and had credentials from all the right places. When I challenged you that your comments contradicted each other, do you remember what you said?" Mr. Book: "I can't talk to you when you're like this." Maybe the way to break through Mr. Bookworm’s armor is to use a medical illustration.

Surely they're all happy about donating more of their money for a better world?
