Maybe that is the real him. I don't know. Does anyone have a sense of this?
A relative used to provide some of his medical care. She said that he was very interesting to listen to a he would immediately start telling stories and talking about things. At the same time, it was near impossible to have a conversation with him -- he wasn't too interested in back and forth conversation. There may be a contrast effect for us as Pres. Hinckley was much more personable and conversant than the average leader.

Tobias: No, it never does. I mean, these people somehow delude themselves into thinking it might, but...but it might work for us.
