    Other than personal experience (or relative lack thereof), what are you basing that on?

    Does it matter that this waste of time is what makes a life for you?

    I read a book recently about people who collected 78s. The author noted that among the collectors there seemed to be signs of obsessive compulsive disorder, ADHD, and of course, Aspergers.

    This discourse is leading me to believe that all proggers are inexorably tied to Gollum from Tolkienville.

    Everyone on this site has their "precious", be it tangible or cerebral (or both).

    If that ain't OCD, what is?

    Old (and wise) people are not exempt from this condition.

    I'm probably biased because I know so many prog fans, but we do seem to be a very OCD/Asperger's-laden lot, don't we?
