If you could resurrect one no longer living person to have lunch with, knowing you will have to return them to the grave right after coffee, who would it be?
Mahatma Ghandi. I’d ask him once more what he thought of western civilisation just to hear it again.
Preferred method of dealing with an encounter with an acquaintance whose name you can’t remember.
Um… I stall and listen (if in a group in the slim hope of someone dropping said forgotten name into the conversation, which usually means i forget to listen to the actual conversation) then i usually bite the bullet and admit to forgetting and humbly (but with confident humility) ask again, and confess to said person whose name i forgot that i’m really crap at remembering people’s names. It’s not a very good method – i’m thinking of reviewing it. Great question.
Why don’t you flip the tortoise over, Leon?
