I can relate to many aspects of your reply. My IQ is in the 140 neighborhood and I was an Air Traffic Controller for 20 years in the AF. I was able to see the big picture in my head at all times with aircraft closing in to the same point in space and others departing that point and crossing paths at different altitudes. It was always a moving 3 dimensional puzzle and I was extremely comfortable with the action.

Take me away from that environment and I get lost at the mall. I can walk into a store and when I walk back out I can't remember which way I arrived from. My wife has to make sure she pays attention to where we came from and where we're headed. Go figure...LOL

Wow! Really? I'm glad you told me that (about getting mixed up direction-wise). My husband gives me no end of teasing over it! I can't even begin to imagine being an air traffic controller. Thank God for you guys!
