Yes, I also picked that one up, but it is a pity the world doesn't realise that everyone despite their inability, disorder or syndrome has a contribution to the big picture. I am a visual learner, I learn from pictures not text and nothing bores me more than a book without pictures, it why I am not well read. Initially it was thought to be dyslexia, but turned out to be aspergers. Also whilst online I search for what I need via google images, the web side I get nowhere and this was recently tested only yesterday whilst trying to find a cross sectional drawing of a Jabsco raw water pump so we can guess at what was failing, the guy whose problem it was was frustrated as the web held no clues, but I got a drawing inside of twenty seconds and told him, it takes me a different approach to find what I need, as images are my forte. I also use this approach in fault finding machines, I picture the fault in my mind and work from that fault until I find the cause. If someone wants to explain somethin to me, for me to understand what is needed, I ask them to draw the problem.
