I was just reading chinashop and thinking it was amazing that there was a small bit of mind to spare for the meaning of life question.
Multi-thinking just isn't something I can do. I can only run one program at a time. Okay, let me qualify that. I can actually walk and chew gum at the same time. In fact I could probably hold down a conversation *and* wave my arms around (and possibly avoid other pedestrians) in addition. I'm sort of permanently impressed that I can hold down a bass line and improvise singing over the top of it (though I've always been able to do that with guitar chords).
Yet I know that some people literally have more than one train of thought happening at the same time.
How?
