I'm really slow at learning to do this. Took me 4 days to figure out how to get here. Was talking with Wheat on line about ADD, and she pointed out that we are often creative, because when most people find an answer, they quit, but our minds just keep going.
I remember from some time ago, in a workshop, I think it was Dr Carla Hannaford, who said that ADD people have a cingulate gyrus in their brain that doesn't shut off. In most people, that part of the brain becomes active only when we are switching from one task to another. So the ADD person is, in effect, always between tasks.
