wasn't thinking of that, but with add and mild tourettes... computer
software development does seem a natural fit, although my habits and
appearance don't exactly shout "high energy levels"...

you guys wi the add
am i wrong or did you-all gravitate to computers
because they felt good for click all around types
and quick-over quick-reflexes and energy levels

tell me things you wished someone had introduced you to at very early
school years, gr 2 to 4

i've been operating wi emates, simple spellcheck and games with these early
learners
and sports at recess (my first three ball hockey goals, and first soccer
goal this year--as a 52 yr old couch potato, i'm really trying hard
kids love computers and my guys-mostly male-NEED computers, emates esp
i think, anyway

any anecdotal stuff that supports me, fr the adult articulate add person?

thanks
mimi
