Yeah, there was this one guy who you called Cap who used it when he was preparing for his SAT exams and for baseball and baseball practice because he could really focus on pitches. And he thought it made him a better hitter. But he didn't like it. And I guess people felt that it changed their personalities in some ways.

You know, I'm sure we're going to get a lot of reaction to this interview because it affects so many people and people's experiences are all unique and there is disagreement about this. You know, I happen to look at this magazine called Attitude. That's A-D-D-itude.

Yeah. I mean it specifically says that in some cases you quoted people who you didn't interview. Wes Crenshaw says he told a Times fact checker before the article was published that the reporter's information was incorrect and asked for an interview to set the record straight. None was granted.
