| I do generally like to work alone. Mainly for the same reasons others have given. What I think works best, though, is a sort of compromise. Where I used to work, I was in an office with about 12 others sitting at desks nearby. We all got to know each other pretty well and, although we were basically... |

That is a really good point, and almost certainly true in many cases. I personally am at university for the ... |

He plays Gareth in 'The Office' (oh and he's in that stupid Pirates of the Caribbean too). Me and my wife m... |

| Pears cyclopedia was mine when I was young... I used to read and re-read bits of it over and over... particularly the bits about subatomic particles and the rules for games and sports for some reason. Later I progressed on to the Encyclopedia Britannica and the OED in the school library. Even now I ... |

| One of my teachers in high school told me shortly before I graduated that she felt I had the potential to become the next Bill Gates. I have heard similar things from other people, so I guess you would say that the reason for my existence is to change the world with a scientific development or inve... |

| My wife has had purple glasses since she was diagnosed with dyslexia and scotopic sensitivity syndrome a few years ago. She says the difference they make is huge; words that were previously wobbling about, unclear, or looked as if they were floating 'above the page' are suddenly 'flat' when wearing ... |

| It's google's upcoming webmail service. It's really good. It comes with 1GB (1000MB!!) of storage and integrated google search so you can easily find on old email about something-or-other. It also sorts emails into 'conversations' which is really nice. At the moment it's by 'invitation only' as they... |

| A nice idea, and I'd consider wearing one sometimes (although I'd be more likely to if they weren't orange :wink: ) One problem, though, is that it could possibly be mixed up with the red string worn by those ridiculous Kabbalh people. Apparently gives you protection from the evil eye :lol: LoL :lol... |

My grades have suffered before because I was too paralyzed with anxiety to e-mail my instructors. I don't know why I was scared... I just was. This is exactly the same as me.... |

Yeah, I'm a huge Beatles fan and have been for years. My tastes, however, are slanted more towards their later stuff and I tend to favour John or George.
It's pretty difficult to pick a favorite song, but I think I'd have to go for either 'Strawberry Fields' or 'Tomorrow Never Knows'. |

| I might be slightly clumsy, but I don't think I'm really any worse than my NT friends. I do sometimes get this thing when I'm trying to sleep where it feels like I'm having to 'hold up' my body (especially my head) when it's really laying on the bed/pillow. That sounds a bit like some of the effects... |
