Briefly Noted …

"...I said that I had typed up something I wanted to show him. I had found notes that I had taken after 2 interviews with the UC psychologist I saw in 1955.

“One set of notes was on a torn-out notebook page, the other partly typed with handwritten notes added.

“Reading them, I said, I had been struck by how they seemed to address the very things we were talking about, and discouraged by how little progress I had made toward addressing these things during the 45 intervening years."
