I've read a number of his books and always enjoy them. I wish more professionals told stories with the same narrative prowess as Sacks. Oliver Sacks is my hero.

Leave alone the fact that to me it's more important than some food groups. I just don't know how nothing musical can make an impression on a human being. Greate post.

Even now evolutionary selection may favor it, merely because if you don't like music you are sort of the odd one out in conversations among other people.

It's weird that evolution selected us to like it. It seems like it doesn't serve much purpose. I wonder if there are still selection pressures for listening to music or if it is no longer necessary from that standpoint. I waste so much time listening to music.
