"Pray for his recovery and mourn the fact that there are so few nonthreatening eccentric people in our midst that we must be satisfied with the bizarros who find their way into education, politics, and media."

Hear. Hear.

Americans cannot do 'eccentric' as well as the Brits. It is an art, apparently. Somethings, we simply do not do as well.

You are so right. Americans don't do eccentric as well as the British. Fortunately, we got insanity down pat.

Fortunately the difference between insanity and eccentricity is how much money you have.

It is my goal to achieve eccentricity by the time I die.

Americans are scared of what they cannot control.
