Okay, all this head trauma stuff is freaking me out and I need to be elsewhere.

Sorry, ita.
David, the stuff you're quoting is the stuff that demarcates vegetables from the rest of us. The Times has been doing a series on the brain-innjured in Iraq (from Iraq, in the US now), and it's really startling the injuries people survive these days, ending up in non-vegetable format.
maybe unable to read; maybe halting in memory or easily confused or a hudnred other possible outcomes, but -- when you've seen a guy walking despite a fist-size section of his gray matter missing, you've got to be impressed at the brain's recovery abilities.

Aimee, you have too much Corey knowledge. That frightens me.
