A couple of test points allegedly indicating autism are actually related to
*visualization ability* rather than *imagination* or *ability to handle
novelty*. As a non-visualizer, I feel deeply wounded by this Aspersion and
will go off and console myself by memorizing the phone book.
(Unfortunately, as a non-visualizer I *can't* memorize the phone book.)
