　　A few years ago, Masaru Ibuka, the head of Sony, was at a company planning meeting. Suddenly he had an idea. He stopped the meeting and asked everyone what would happen if Sony took away the recording function(功能) and speakers and sold headphones with a tape player instead. Almost everyone thought he was silly. Still, Ibuka kept his idea and worked at it. The result, of course, turned out to be the successful Sony Walkman.

　　Good ideas often start with a really silly question. Bill Bowerman was making breakfast one day. As he stood there making cakes for his son, he asked himself what would happen if he put rubber into his mold(模具). Later, he tried it and the result was something like the bottom of most sports shoes we see today. Still, when he took this idea to several shoe companies, he was laughed at. In fact, every single company turned him down. Though rather disappointed, Bowerman went on to set up his own company, making NIKE sports shoes.

　　We know today that each of these ideas caused a successful thing that has changed the way many of us live. The best questions are usually open-ended and are often “silly”. Children aren’t afraid to ask such questions, but adults usually are. Think how different the world might be if people never asked “silly” questions!

　　As a society, we seem to turn on(攻擊) the obese(肥胖).

　　One summer holiday, while I studied medicine in the college, I got a job clearing the garden of a retired(退休) ballet dancer to make some pocket money. When it rained, he invited me in and showed me some photos from his career at the Royal Ballet.

　　What surprised me was the change that happened to him. He was fit and flexible in the photos. Yet, the man sitting in front of me, although still relatively young, could not walk without a stick. His legs often ached after he retired. He became fatter and fatter. This, he said, is the cost of ballet. It’s really not his fault(過錯(cuò)) to have become fat.

　　Yet the person who surprised people last week was not a dancer but a comedienne(女喜劇演員). Dawn French was seen leaving Matthew Swan Lake at Sadler’s Wells using a stick. Her assistant later explained that his was because she got injured while getting out of a taxi but this didn’t stop the rumor(謠言) that it might be because of her size.

　　Poor Dawn, who as far as I know, has never tried to pass on any dieting tips to anyone, is suddenly the focus of attention and being blamed for becoming “a role model for obese”. A role model? Why? Just because she’s famous and she’s fat?

　　Maybe as a doctor I am expected to be supporting the anti-fat group, but I strongly believe that the job of doctors isn’t to stand in judgment over people’s lives, but to provide them with information that can help them make a choice. If people want to be overweight, it’s up to them. What’s more, some people become fat not because of what they eat, like the ballet dancer. We should not look down upon the obese. Instead, we should respect them as much as we respect those who have normal weight.
