I skimmed it and got similar

I would have to think that as frustrated as I get ay my job explaining things to people and getting stuff accomplished....I would never survive a place like that. Where a mere .000001% of the population gets what you're talking about (and likely they are all egghead dicks) and accomplishments take years....and nobody cares. But I approach that kind of challenge with my mind...the same mind that can't comprehend why people want to spend all day every weekend watching football. And then more football.

I'm in the same boat as others - this article is gonna take more than a couple of re-reads before I am able to achieve some minimal level of comprehension -
maybe tomorrow, after the (stupor) Bowl game

Cheers
JB
