(this analogy is going to get sillier and sillier)

i think, while still maintaining your vocal speed for when it's needed, you
should be able to slow down and talk very slow like everyone else and get
something out of it (without thinking it's hard for you to have to speak so
slow like all these other people), otherwise how intelligent could you be?
