I'm a slow listener and a slower talker. I'ts a noying for me becuase my words can never catch up to my ideas. I'm just not a verbal person at all but i do like listening. Fast talkers like Jezzabelle tend to leave me in the dust though I do like the challenge of trying to keep up.

If I remember correctly, electrical synapses fire at 0.2 ms.

Yeah, it take about 0.3ms for transmitters to transfer from neuron to neuron. The impulses travel at about 70m/s. There are about 6 synapses before you are even aware of a sound and it takes many more synapses to process and understand what has been said.
With all the modification that can happen at every synapse it makes you wonder, how much of what you comprehend is actually what has been said?
