Oh, wow. I just read the CBS article Karen referenced in her earlier post, which has this quote:

"I think of myself as an explainer, as a visual explainer of things that interest me," Macaulay offers.

I got a bit of a thrill reading that, because -- apropos of another thread here on this list about what it is we actually do -- I've been describing myself as "an explainer" for some years now.

Not that I'm claiming any kind of remote association to MacCauley's level of genius. If I manage to make it through the day without spilling coffee all over myself or stabbing myself in the eye with a pen I'm doing pretty well.

A story last night on the CBS Evening News focused onDavid Mcaulay who just
was awarded the title of "genius" by the MacArthur Foundation. My
conclusion, an highly talented, gifted technical writer. Guess you have to
be titled "genius" to gain respect. ;^))
