It sounds like you are on the right track William.  Awarness of
learning disabilities and how they affect us is the first and
foremost was as adults that we have to deal with them.  I myself am
dyslexic, and often feel "less than" others and embarrassed by
this.  However, the more I become aware I have been able to
overcome and deal with this problem so that it is hardly
discernable or disabling.  In fact dealing with numbers which used
to drive me crazy is now fun and interesting to me as a result.  I
would like to hear more about people who have difficulty with
stimuli from the envirement.  Our children suffer from this in
great numbers.  I would like toknow how adults deal with this.
