Hi Rob:
For me it's been very helpful to understand myself.
Note this is not something to be "cured" it's just the way some people are and
the world needs those people.
There a book "look me in the eye" that's a true story about the guy who built
the special guitars for the rock group KISS.
Have Fun,
Brooke Clarke

Hi Brooke,
I'm not sure I should have done that test as I scored 35. Hmmm...

Hi:
Recently I've discovered Asperger's Syndrome. Although I don't meet all the
criteria, I do have a number of the traits.
One is living with clutter (this is different from obsessive hording). A
common occupation is engineering.
AS people are much more comfortable with things as opposed to people.
People who work in technical fields or have strong interests, like extremely
precise time, may also have this.
To find out you can take an online test at:
http://www.aspergerstestsite.com/
or read the Wiki page at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asperger_syndrome
and a movie:
"Mozart and the Whale" that's about this.
Have Fun,
Brooke Clarke

There is even a gallery of 24 of Engineering's messiest desks here:

My primary love is music (analog synthesizers and digital instruments
with
recording) and the first messy desk pictured is from Christopher
Nelson who designs the Sweetwater Sound Creation Station computers --
I own one and love it.
It is ironic that:
Pease was killed in the crash of his
1969 Volkswagen Beetle, on
June 18, 2011. He was leaving a
gathering in memory of Jim Williams,
who was another well-known
analog circuit designer.

George's is a far distant competitor to the bench of the late Jim
Williams, see

g-jim-williams/
Which was on display at the Computer History Museum and just was
returned to Linear Tech.
