I've seen you doing that and I've seen folks totally miss the point, probably because they have a preconceived notion of where you're going to come down on something.

I've been reading brain theory stuff again and it has made me more attuned to habits or patterns in thought. Certain paths won't be followed to their obvious conclusion because the initial emotional or subconscious thought sets the mind on a habitual track that isn't easily switched from. That is where UT's reading point is so important, we won't break our own patterns unless we're willing to follow someone elses' argument to its conclusion. That is one reason why having Presidents who don't read is such a scarey idea.
