RossingtonMichael so, not only does he compile the information, discern what is relevant to the thesis of his lecture, derive from that research a larger idea which he then conveys through his multifaceted lecture by talking passionately about it- but he has to worry about how YOU absorb information to the extent of changing his natural demeanor and personality while doing all of the above? I know internet has made a habit of using media to do your thinking FOR you in most cases- but maybe some of the work is on you to do as the one who wishes to gain the information he has?

I don't believe that someone who is either happy or confident in themselves spends their time mocking others.
