I found this article to be fascinating. I'm going to go beat myself in the head with a 2x4.

This is so rare, it would be easier to get hit by lighting, for this to happen to anyone.
And I am a multi head injury pt. myself.

Yep, MIT students in the dorm are whacking each other with baseball bats as we speak.

Well, I used to have a mullet, so I figure I’m already halfway there.

The human brain is an amazing...and mysterious...thing.There are documented cases of people who,after a head injury,seizure or stroke,wake up speaking a language they never spoke before.I used to work for a neuropathologist...fascinating stuff.I even got to hold a human brain in my hands once....an experience I'll never forget.

I thought mullet was a useless fish that my dad dynamited in the San Diego sloughs and sold for chicken feed to buy the 2 1/2 acre property from the stage company after it was shut down when they built the railroad.

During one of his meditations, he came to the conclusion that “circles don’t exist.”So the author or editor found this sentence compelling enough to share in the article but then utters not one more peep about it?

Quick, somebody hit on the head again so he can get back to playing video games and texting 10,000 times a day.

He is one of a few people in the world who can draw approximations of fractals, the repeating geometric patterns that are building blocks of everything in the known universe, by hand.Fractals are not building blocks, atoms are. I don't know what it means to 'draw an approximation of a fractal'---I don't think the statement makes any sense.

This is my **favourite** guy that is like the man in the article...he is an English man named Daniel Tammet
Here he is in a neat clip from a documentary where he learned Icelandic in a week...it’s very touching to me. Especially since he seems like such a sweet man:

And this is a clip of him on the David Letterman show where he explains his “condition” and how it may have been brought on by epileptic seizures and his autism. He also talks about memorizing pi to 22,000+ digits for charity:
