    A nice little gem of history, the second slide features Sullivan himself discussing the evolution of the public’s interpretation of his ‘science.’ Neat stuff.

    The first two slides remind me of Fitz, with that shift as well as the body blow which you see Fitz do in pictures as well as Donovan.
