I don't know the answers to any of these, but there better be a reason for this announcement.
Of course there is a reason. It just is not one that makes much sense. Or as William James said:

"A great many people think they are thinking when they are merely rearranging their prejudices."

For sMartz, the brain starts working the moment he awakes and doesn't stop until he stands up to mutter something in public.
