| Had one yesterday, had to keep asking the same questions over and over and over and now this guy I work with thinks I'm an idiot and an annoying idiot at that. He's started imitating me - how the hell am I supposed to react to that? |

| Me too. It takes me ages to learn someones face, and even then, if I don't speak to them alot (and sometimes even if I do) it's just gone. I've completely forgotten most of the people I went to school with. Do anyone else learn to recognise people by their voice or items of clothing or jewelery they... |

I'm training to be an engineer, so this is probably a go... |

| I asked a lot of hard questions and poked holes in my parents' religion before I was 5. By 6 or 7, I realized that my senses couldn't prove conclusively that the world was real.
