I don't have what you have, but I do have certain cognitive
   difficulties that I've fought my whole life. One of them for
   example that took me a lifetime to figure out, is that I simply
   can't process "inferences" automatically. I have to think them
   through. I've gotten better and faster at it, but it's always a
   conscious process. It was something I was terrible at in school,
   "What is the author's intent?" and I'd look at the question
   blindly. All 5 choices were equally valid to me.,, depending on
   the circumstances. But apparently, there's a "right choice" out
   of the bunch. Always did poorly on that type of test, while
   doing excellent in everything else. In retrospect, it's been a
   pattern my whole life. Yet _because_ I've had to fight this
   issue, I've gotten good at explicitly understanding inference. I
   _had to_ consciously process what most people seem to do
   automatically, giving me the *extra ability* to see all the
   "inbetween bits of logic" on how they got there and what's wrong
   with their thinking. Makes me a good debunker like you are. I
   enjoy debunking - even my own thoughts. I feel as if it keeps me
   sharp.
