Senator Inouye remembers--

00:15.170 --> 00:19.658
I’m surprised that
he remembers people very well.

00:19.658 --> 00:22.250
He may have met you for the first time,

00:22.250 --> 00:27.960
and the next time when he comes to visit,
“Oh, how is she doing?”

00:27.960 --> 00:31.750
I keep thinking, oh my goodness,
Senator has remembered.

00:31.750 --> 00:38.320
But he was the kind of person
that he just doesn’t meet like,

00:38.320 --> 00:39.930
“Oh, how do you do,” and “Hi.”

00:39.930 --> 00:44.800
But he really gets to see the person
and he remembers,

00:44.800 --> 00:49.240
and that to me was very articulate.

00:49.240 --> 00:54.310
Many of us, we’re so busy in our life,
we say hi, hello and goodbye.

00:54.310 --> 01:02.500
But I think Senator somehow has a feeling,
he gets to know the person,

01:02.500 --> 01:07.060
remembers the name, the face
and then finds out a little more

01:07.060 --> 01:10.950
of what that person is doing
or what his life is,

01:10.950 --> 01:13.840
if he has met the person
for the first time.

01:13.840 --> 01:18.950
Because whenever we go and meet him again
and I take some of my girlfriends,

01:18.950 --> 01:23.208
I’m quite amazed that, oh, he remembers.

01:23.208 --> 01:28.450
Many of my girlfriends, too,
they have lost their husbands,

01:28.450 --> 01:32.706
but he does remember,
“Oh, so and so.”

01:32.706 --> 01:39.020
So I think he had a very good memory,
but I think he really studies that person.

01:39.020 --> 01:43.290
[laughs] You know, many of us,
we just say, “Hi, hello” and “Bye.”

01:43.290 --> 01:45.290
Next time we would forget their names.

01:45.290 --> 01:51.672
Senator has a really good memory,
but I think that’s him.

01:51.672 --> 01:58.400
He tries to make that person--
he’s really meeting that person

01:58.400 --> 02:02.150
and he wants to know
a little more about that person.
