You see that the people who are drawn to alternative medicine are OFTEN fairly HEALTHY and they go to alternative medicine for what I call the 'symptoms of life.' FATIGUE, joint PAINS, inability to concentrate, perhaps, the KINDS of things that anyone over twenty-five gets at some point.

The ESSENCE of my CHARACTER is an inability to GET used to things. This, in FACT, is the one thing I have GROWN accustomed to: an inability to get used to things.
