ADD, that's what 'they' (as in the conspiratorial they) call it when 'they' 
can't understand that I figured it out when I heard it the *first* time.  
That I read it or heard it and it made sense to me then.  And that somehow 
(unlike them) I don't have to write it out and show all the work to get the 
answer right,  That I *can* do it in my head, whether they think it's 
possible or not.  That I'm reading Heinlein during the lecture because I read 
the chapter in ten minutes on my way to class that morning, and I _don't_ 
have any questions about how to do it.

It's a descriminatory term of derision, promulgated by Idiots who 
condecendingly think that because I'm not shaken to the quick by their 
picayune issues, or that because I'm underwhelmed by their struggling 
pointless repetition, I must somehow be 'Defective', a victim of some 
'Disorder'.

Well, guess what...  I did not suffer from a 'Learning Disability', I learned 
just fine.  It was 'they' who suffered from a 'Teaching Inabilty'.

MY GOD!  Where might I be now, if the world hadn't tried to cram me into 
their cookie-cutter mold of conformity and bored me to dispair and 
mis-behavior as a child.
