The Boy With The Incredible Brain

I've got this synesthesia as well, but I can't use it to do advanced calculations. (I just do math in colors instead of numbers, and I can remember almost any number you give me).

That's certainly an interesting quirk. I wonder where he lacks (if at all) if they consider him a "savant." I thought that usually implied that a person is extremely adept to a certain thing, but other things he lacks.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

O, my bad. I thought the term meant the same, but yea - I'm a dolt.

Autistic savant, huh. Same as the old "idiot" savant? 'Cause lol

There's nowhere I can't reach.
