He read a lot. He used a lot of big words. I think maybe part of what got him into trouble was that he did too much thinking.

A couple of times I tried to tell him it was a mistake to get too deep into that kind of stuff, but Alex got stuck on things. He always had to know the absolute right answer before he could go on to the next thing.
