- Fascinating! One thing I'd like to know: When Dr. Sacks is talking about his interaction with Myron, he makes no indication that Myron's speech was slowed. Certainly his speech wasn't slowed to the same degree as his physical movement, evidenced by his ability to converse. In contrast, Hester's speech was described as being so fast that it was impossible to even properly imitate it. If Myron is "absorbing and performing at drastically different tempos from the rest of humanity", why doesn't that affect his speech as well as his movement?
