Has anyone read Jill Bolte Taylor's _My Stroke of Insight_?  I saw her TED 
talk, and have assigned that as one of the texts for my "Self" freshman 
writing/speaking/critical-thinking courses.  (We're piloting a new gen ed 
curriculum, and this is one of those.)

Anyway, I haven't read it yet, but her talk was certainly interesting.

Thanks for submitting that, Sue.  It should also be a lesson for us all:  If 
you have symptoms like that, pull over and call 911.  Don't drive yourself to 
the hospital.  Had he had a second, perhaps more serious stroke shortly after 
the first one (which often happens), the results could have been much more 
tragic for him and perhaps others.
