[quote=Anonymous]Stephen Colbert is deaf in his right ear (the ear that sticks out at an angle) due to a botched operation to remove a tumor when he was a child. He had wanted to be a marine biologist but because the ear issue meant he could never dive, he had to drop that idea. Also, Colbert's father and two of his brothers all died in a plane crash in 1974. The crash is well documented because the subsequent investigation led to changes in aviation rules in the United States. Look up the "sterile cockpit rule." It restricts communications in the cockpit when an aircraft is below 10,000 feet, so pilots do not get distracted. Colbert has said that as a child he wanted to make his grieving mother happier and that probably led to his using humor at home to please her. [/quote]
