*I wasn't aware of Pizzolatto's career prior to True Detective -- his sense of tone and place, as well as his dialogue, really impress me, so now I have more work to look forward to. Thanks!

*I don't know if you meant it literally, but I had a multi-year period of depression so thick I couldn't hear the nuances in music properly. It was devastating. Here's to your music swimming back to you properly.

*I was raised in North Florida and lived in middle Georgia on and off through my 20s. Performers of any stripe who mispronounce our words while faking Southern accents are an especial grievance...thank you for correcting people. You have a sizable megaphone, so maybe it will help.
