After all, "It's all about consciousness"

where did I hear that? oh yea, Oprah.

I watched your 12 minutes the other day Richard, and once again, great work. I understand the Patrick Stewart joke now. But when you think about it, the chicks dig Patrick, and what about Sean Connery, they dig him too so you are in excellent company.

I was amazed how congenial you were on the show, did it require any effort or did it simply flow as smoothly as it appeared? Just curious.
