Not a linguist but studied it and various dead and alive languages in school, and had a close family member with dementia. I think his speech patterns sound like a combo of senility on the verge of dementia, lots of amphetamines, and his deep-seated fear that his deep truth is being laid bare, and he knows he is a…
Exactly. They’re places where the monied classes can rub elbows and form friendships and cultivate networks and pair off, and then funnel them to elite colleges to do more of the same so they can keep all that nice money amongst themselves.

You should get your mom to watch the Ken Burns’ Dust Bowl mini-documentary! Apart from the fact that it’s very good, I learned about and am now committed to spreading the word about the unsung source of John Steinbeck’s inspiration- private field notes by Farm Administration and employee Sanora Babb, an Oklahoma woman…
