As an example, when I go to the cinema I find myself in a hopeless fog, and after two or three minutes I have to turn to my wife for enlightenment. I whisper. “Is this the same girl as the one we saw at the beginning?” And she whr.iers back” “No, there are three girls in this film- a tall blonde a short onion, and a medium-sized brunette. Call them A, B, and C. The hero is that m ’ whc akes his hat off when he comes indoors. He is going to fall in love Wiui girls 3. C, A in that order.” And so it proves to be. There you have a mind which has trained itself to work in high gear-though as a matter of fact it can work in other gears just as, well. But my point is that most of my fellow- patients in the cinema do think fast enough to keep up comfortably with rapid changes of scene and action. They think much faster than people did thirty years ago: possibly because those who do not think fast in the High Street nowadays may not get another chance in this world to think at world to think at all.
