I Thought I was an Infomaniac . . .
. . . but it turns out that I’m just normally infovorous. USC professor Irving Biederman writes:
Gaze at something that leads to a novel interpretation . . . and that will spur higher levels of associative activity in opioid-dense areas. We are thus thrilled when new insights tap into what we have previously learned. We seek ways to feed our opioid desires; we are willing to endure the line at the movie theater in anticipation of the pleasure within. We pay more for a room with a view or a cup of coffee at a Parisian sidewalk cafe.
That explains the pleasure I find in scavenging other areas of knowledge for ideas that might be applied to criminal defense trial lawyering. (Don’t tell anyone, or they’ll start passing laws against it.)
About The Author
Oh my. Maybe I’m a addict. Anyone know of a 12 step program for information addicts?
If they criminalize it, I think we should definitely follow up with Infomaniac Registration. If you were only mildly curious, and under 19 at the time of the offense, it will only be a 10 year registration period.
However, given Mark’s level of curiosity and his age, he will obviously have Lifetime Registration.
