Kwintlanganiso yeveki yokuqala kwikota yakhe yokuqala, uMongameli uCalvin Coolidge uqaphele intatheli ithatha amanqaku njengoko wayethetha.
Ngaba ubhala phantsi ngamafutshane into endiyithethayo? UCoolidge ubuze, ngokwe-White House stenographer.
Ewe, mhlekazi, intatheli yaphendula.
Ngoku andicingi ukuba kulungile, utshilo uCoolidge. Andiphikisani nokuthatha amanqaku malunga nale nto ndiyithethayo, kodwa andiziphosi kunxibelelwano lwam kwinkomfa kuyo nayiphi na into enje ngesimbo esigqibeleleyo okanye nantoni na enokuthi inxulunyaniswe nendalo yentetho kamongameli.
Kwakungekho loo mihla?
Ukufika kukanomathotholo kunye nomabonakude kuphakamise izibonda-kwaye kwehlisa imigangatho-kumacala omabini eqonga, uyacacisa uMichael Erard kwi Nye … , uhlalutyo lwakhe olubandakanyekayo kodwa oludibeneyo lweempazamo esizenzayo xa sithetha-into ayibiza ngokuba yi-blunderology.
Umnumzana Erard waphefumlelwa, kwaye wanikezela isahluko esipheleleyo, uhlolisiso olunzulu olwenziwe nguMongameli uGeorge W. Bush ngokuhlala esixabana nesiNgesi. Ubeka olu hlolisiso kwimeko yoluntu lwethu lweelwimi ezininzi kunye nokuxhalaba okuxubileyo malunga nokunxibelelana phakathi kolwimi, ubumi, ukuthanda ilizwe kunye nokuba lilungu. Kulungile ngokwaneleyo, kodwa ukungazithandi izinto nako kuyahlekisa.
Le yenye yeencwadi zeelwimi ocinga ukuba izakutshintsha indlela omamela ngayo abantu (inqaku liyaFunda kuMfundi lilumkisa njalo) -kodwa ke ngoku ngeenxa zonke zehlabathi kunangaphambili. Mhlawumbi oku ngekhe kumothuse uMnu Erard, ovumayo ukuba isayensi ye-blunderology ibisoloko ithintelwa yinto elula yokuba ubuchopho bethu bukhupha uninzi lweziliphu zethu kunye nezabanye. Abantu benza impazamo enye ukuya kwezimbini ngamagama aliwaka, ukanti baxela ukuba baqaphela kuphela ngeveki.
Umnumzana Erard uqhekeza iimpazamo zethu zibe ziindidi ezibini: ukutyibilika kolwimi (ikomityi yekofu) kunye nokungahambi kakuhle (um no-uh). Ngelixa iziliphu zifumana phantse yonke ingqwalaselo kumajelo osasazo noncwadi, ukungazithembi kuqheleke kakhulu; ngokobalo olunye, benza iipesenti ezingama-40 zazo zonke iimpazamo zokuthetha. Kuzo zombini iimeko, impazamo yenzeka kuba ingqondo ibandakanyeka ngaxeshanye ekucwangciseni nasekusebenzeni. Ngamanye amagama, kunokwenzeka ukuba wenze iimpazamo xa uzama ukucinga nokuthetha ngaxeshanye. (UMongameli Bush, ngokucacileyo, ucinga nzulu.)
Umnumzana Erard ulandelela imbali ye-blunderology ukuya kwi-Egypt yamandulo, kodwa izinto azihambi de kwaba yinkulungwane ye-19, xa uMfundisi uWilliam Spooner kwiYunivesithi yaseOxford atyholwa ngokwenza iziliphu ezahlukileyo-ezothusayo, ezincokolayo iindibano. igama lakhe. Nangona phantse onke amacephe awaziwayo esenziwe, uMnu Erard uyabonisa, nangona kunjalo abonisa iipateni ezinokuqikelelwa zesiliphu somlomo: Sithanda ukumosha isilabhili yokuqala yegama, isilabhili yoxinzelelo, kunye negama lokuqala isandi. Ukwanxibelelanisa umtsalane necephe kunye nokunyuka kwexesha lezemizi-mveliso, xa iitekhnoloji ezinje ngomgaqo kaloliwe zazikhula ngobukhulu kunye nobunzima. Kule meko, uMnu Erard uthi, iimpazamo ezincinci zabantu zibe neziphumo ezikhulu.
UFreud, ngokwendalo, ufumana ilungelo lakhe apha: Kuye, isiliphu somlomo ibubungqina bomnqweno wokungazi-ngokwesondo okanye ngenye indlela-ukuzama ukuziveza. Kodwa uMnu Erard unika ixesha elilinganayo omnye, unjingalwazi waseViennese ongaziwayo, uRudolf Meringer, owaqokelela iziliphu ngamawaka kwaye waziphikisa iingcamango zikaFreud ngokungenalusini nangokuphandle. UMeringer wayekholelwa ukuba iimpazamo zentetho zithe zathethwa malunga nolwimi ngokwalo kunokuba kuthethwe ngomntu othethayo-kwaye nangona engazange afumane ludumo lukaFreud, izimvo zakhe zisondele kakhulu ekuqondeni kwanamhlanje iziliphu zomlomo.
Intatheli ene-MA kwiilwimi nakwi-Ph.D. NgesiNgesi, uMichael Erard ngokucacileyo unomdla ngesihloko sakhe, kodwa uzinike ithisisi yomhlaba yokugubungela. Ubuninzi bezifundo azikhankanyayo ngokukhawuleza buba sisiphazamiso, ngakumbi njengoko imigaqo kunye nethiyori zitshintsha kaninzi. Ngekhe ndamkele ukufunyanwa okufutshane kwi-neuroscience, ngokunikwa ukuba sifunde kangakanani ngebhayoloji kunye nobuchwephesha bobuchopho nakweli shumi leminyaka lidlulileyo.
Inqaku lakhe eliphambili, nangona kunjalo, li-empathic, kwaye lithathwe kakuhle: Iimpazamo zomlomo ziyinxalenye ebalulekileyo yokuthetha-iingozi eziqhelekileyo, njengoko ebeka-kwaye sonke sinetyala kakhulu kunokuba sicinga.
Ke uthini umntu wethu ophazamisekileyo ophambili? Umnumzana Erard uthi akulunganga ukukhetha uMnu Bush njengesithethi esingenaxhala, kwaye ubonelela njengobungqina esi sicatshulwa silandelayo: Uh, mna, mna, umyalezo wam ngowabavoti belizwe. Ewe, ndicela inkxaso yabo. Andithatheli ivoti enye, ngenjongo. Umxholo yayili-2000 likaMongameli, kwaye isithethi yayingu-Al Gore.
