Happy Birthday to the brilliant Oliver Sacks, whose fascinating tales of neurological wonders have forever changed how we see our brains—and hats! Your stories taught us that mistaking one's wife for headwear isn't just a fashion faux pas; it's neuroscience gold.From exploring musical minds in "Musicophilia" to introducing us all as anthropologists on Mars, your work has made neurology accessible and endlessly entertaining. You've shown humanity's quirks with compassion and humor—proving science can be both profound and delightfully peculiar.
Here's wishing you another year filled with curiosity, laughter, music (and perhaps fewer wardrobe confusions). Happy birthday!
