20、, so I let my mind wander. My curiosity was aroused, though, when about 30 seconds into the tape, a gorilla(大猩猩) came in among the players. She (we later learned a female student was in the gorilla suit) start at the camera, thumped her chest, and the strode away while they continued passing the bal
21、ls. When the tape stopped, the philosopher asked how many people had counted at least d a dozen basketball tosses. Hands went up all over. He then asked who had counted 13, 14, and congratulated those whod scored the perfect 15. The he asked, “And who saw the gorilla?” I raised my hand and was surpr
22、ised to discover I was the only person at my table and one of only three or four in the large room to do so. Hed set me up, trapping us in our own attention blindness.

28、ealing with pile of fan mail is, however, an administrative burden for most celebrities. While some celebrities do like to go through their mail personally, the majority simply do not have time. But the fact f their correspondence is something most committed fans will not wish to dwell on, say Lynn
29、Zubernis, an expert in the psychology of fandom at West Chester University. “Theres this little bit of every fan that thinks theirs will be the one that stands out- its not an expectation, but a hope that theirs will be seen by the celebrity.” While the relationship between the fan and the celebrity
