Most body language analysts say that crossed arms are a sign of defensiveness, reluctance or a "blase" attitude.

Or, it could be he was just cold.

In any event, I'm going to download the hi-res version, frame it and put it in my office in order to A) Inspire me; and, 2) Piss of the right-wingers in the office. (As an avowed liberal, I am WAY in the minority here.)

Thanks for the post.
