I read "a child called it" by dave pelzer. I think "I feel
disconnected" by you is an aural version of a part of the
book, maybe during the cold long hours he was forced to lay
in the cold water with his head submerged. You should read
it to see what I mean (short read).

My mom read that book, said I should read it too. Its
supposed to be "moving" or something. Anyway I havent got
time to spare between "Advanced Windows 2000 Programming in
Visual C++" and "Linux Apache Web Administration" so Ill
take your word that its a good book.

prediction:
In earth's future, humans will become extinct and manatees
will evolve to fill the niche of ecological dominance. They
will unbury our fossils and artifacts and learn about us,
much as we learned about the dinosaurs. Discovering that we
referred to ourselves as "humanity", they will call
themselves "maniteeanity" (since it has a better sound than
"maniteeity")

I wonder how it's going for wormanity... any new scientific
breakthroughs in dirt eating?

It figures it was on oprah... well it was a sad good book.
Poor kid. There was this theory in the selfish gene where a
mother naturally evolved to create one extra "just in case"
child, in case she had spare time to help feed/raise it in
addition to her other children (to maximize replication of
her genes by dividing her time as economically as possible
into nurturing and reproducing), and that's how runts
developed. Maybe the mother had the runt thing going with
that kid or something, it's hard to explain. Maybe there's
an ill psychological reason for her behavior, maybe
something equally awful happened to her and that's how she
released it.
