They used to be called "Idiot Savants", like Dustin Hoffman in "Rainman".

Imagine if these people (both kids and adults) were able to keep that trait while "normalizing" (whatever that is) their other brain functions?

Now that's something I'd like to see, kind of like a real like "X-men" scenario.

It's amazing to realize that we only use about 10% of our brain power. Of course it's also quite evident that there are some (as in ANY tv show) that use far less than that!!!

I am a legend in my own mind!
