TED: Jill Bolte Taylor's stroke of insight

I know that I beat a few drums more than others. For instance, I've mentioned TED.com quite a few times on this Blog. It may seem that I'm on the site all the time; I wish! But I do surf over there when time allows.
My niece posted a Facebook link to a TED talk by Jill Bolte Taylor, so I had a gander yesterday. As usual, an incredible talk. And one of the few that I've seen on the site that ends with the speaker crying.
Who is she? Here's a succinct summary from her website: "Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor is a Harvard-trained and published neuroanatomist who experienced a severe hemorrhage in the left hemisphere of her brain in 1996... She is the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir My Stroke of Insight: A Brain Scientist's Personal Journey."
When you have 20 minutes, you should watch Bolte Taylor's TED talk. And if you don't have 20 minutes, you should find them somehow. The laundry can wait.
Cheers,
Vanessa
