amazing ability to remember facts

I don't understand your comment...
You're not modest, are you? Nothing wrong with that, I suppose, but I wouldn't dream of referring to myself like that, whether it were true or not.

I was not attempting to brag, but rather give you all the facts. Giftedness can actually be measured, and for that I was actually being modest, as my IQ is within genius range. And the ability to remember facts is not me bragging either. It is common with Asperger's Syndrome to have a sort of weird memory. I personally can remember facts amazingly well, but my working memory sucks. This actually has nothing to do with intelligence, but I am lucky enough that I do understand what I remember.
Anyway, please understand that I was only trying to provide all the information that could point towards a diagnoses of Asperger's Syndrome.
No, I understand, but just as a general social rule...um...modesty helps. Or maybe it's just my Britishness.
P.S. You views on disability benefits...wow.
