Words........

This was really interesting to me, and I mean R E A L L Y interesting. especially the parts of the woman who lost her speech ability when I compared it to Ill de Ponzo (sp?) to the woman the lack of language was very nearly a blessing and when asked to chose between that and a world with words, she didn't know how to answer. Whereas Ponzo was overcome with happiness when he discovered that everything has a name and that he would finally be able to communicate with other people.

I liked this show a lot, but the music could not have been more distracting, they kept playing it as a background thing but my mind grabbed the music and brought it to the fore front. I had to go back and listen to a couple of things twice just to hear what they were saying and force myself to ignore music.

one final thing, could this possibly have been any more pretentious? is it any wonder that public radio is running out of money?
