I have an uncomfortable question. What is the relationship between drawing and appreciation? It's like watching a unicyclist on a high wire -- it's great that he can do that, but...?

I just watched this on a showed called Beautiful Minds- I think it's on Discovery Channel. It was pretty interesting- the reason there are savants like this is because a part of their brain doesnt work. So basically if you get into a bad accident and get major head trauma on the left side of your brain- you might wake up a much more creative individual! But you might forget how to talk....
