36. It does make you wonder. And what a gift - especially as she led a normal life.
D.H. Lawrence was invited to visit a man in a mental asylum in Great Britain.

The friend who found this "mental case" intriguing stopped by D.H.'s house and the two of them embarked on a pleasant hike through the neighboring pathways of English countryside. They had several long talks about several subjects, all of them greatly interesting to both participants.

When they got to the asylum, D.H. went over to the "mental case"

Without saying so much as "Hi," the guy began to recite, verbatim, the entire one hour conversation that D.H. and his friend had shared in their walk to the facility.
