Tick Tick Tick

TIME- WAS 60 MINUTES - NOW JUST 26!

Slashed

I was fascinated by the Science channel look at "Time" last night. The last segment about Clive Waring with "the worst case of amnesia ever known" could be the model for that guy in Memento, but reminded me of Alzheimer's victims I've know. 3 credit hours.

Simply incredible! Thanks!

So who was the man-rat at 19:38?

Is that a test to see if we watched the entire thing?

Oh, that's absolutely tragic to see! I read about his case in the book "The man who mistook his wife for a hat." (a fascinating book full of other curious vignettes, btw... highly recommended!) but seeing his disability played out is heartbreaking.

And yes, Rodger, it is quite a lot like Altzheimer's syndrome where the victim slowly forgets himself.
