Multi . . .

. . . tasking . . .

(from The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann, translated by John E. Woods)
". . . he (Dr. Behrens, Director of the Bergdorf Sanatorium) could simultaneously listen to a patient's interior, talk about something else, and dictate what he had heard to his assistant. . . "Yes, yes, gentlemen, the damn libido," he said. "The whole affair is great sport for you, of course -  it doesn't matter to you. Vesicular.  But the direcdtor of a sanatorium gets a noseful, believe you - muffled -believe you me.  Can I help it if phthisis is accompanied by increased concupiscence?  Slight roughness?  I didn't arrange things this way, but before you know what's happened you're running a cathouse.  Diminished under the left shoulder. We provide analysis, a chance to talk things out - and a hell of a lot of good it does.  The more the rhonchial pack talks things out the more lecherous they become.  I advocate mathematics.  Better here, the old sound is gone. Keeping oneself occupied with mathematics, I say, is the best medicine for cupidity.  Prosecutor Paravant, who was severely afflicted, threw himself into math - he's busy squaring the circle these days and it has greatly eased his problem.  But most of them are too full-witted or too lazy for that, God help them.  Vesicular. You see, I'm quite aware that young folks go to the dogs all too easily here, and I used to attempt to take occasional measure against their debauchery.  But then one day some lad or lover looked me straight in the eye and asked what business it was of mine. And since then I've been only a doctor. Weak rattling, top right.". . . "
