From the deposition of a neuropsychologist:

A. May I give an example of this?
Q. Sure.
A. Okay. If you look -- and the example is this. Our brains are a
miracle. Okay. They're a miracle that needs to be protected. And if you
look at the court reporter right now, as an example, okay, this is a miracle
in progress happening right before your eyes.

Let me just explain what she needs to do. I am speaking, so the information
has to come in through her ear into her temporal lobe, and it has to go log
itself into the language center. She has to be able to comprehend what I'm
saying. Then it has to get rerouted to the prefrontal cortex where it has
to hold -- she has to be able to hold the information, because, you know, I
continuously talk so she has to hold it, right? Then she has to analyze it,
integrate it and synthesize it. Then it has to go back to the cerebellum
and she has to be able to execute this, and she has to be able to then
convert my words into those little squiggly marks. Have you ever seen court
reporters have little squiggly language things? So she has to convert it
into a different language, and the white matter tracks allows her to reroute
all of this information simultaneously without effort.

We take our brains for granted. She's sitting here. I'm probably talking
too fast for her, but she's able to do this simultaneously. Seamlessly.

No animal on the planet can do this. All right. That's why I believe court
reporters will never be replaced. Because no technical -- no technology
could replace the beauty of that brain and the miracle of that brain. And
that's why your brain should always be protected and you should take care of
it

Hey Jeannie. Yeah, school is definitely tough, but I'm enjoying it as much as humanly possible. ha ha I'm actually working on some Q&A's right now. I'm just really beginning in speed classes, and hope that it doesn't take me TOO much longer. I'm expected to graduate (according to my school) in October of next year. I'm fine with that time frame, but pray it doesn't take any longer than that! I see on your page that you have had arm pain. Is that due to your work? Just curious!
