Recently, mid-conversation I zoned out, which is normal for me. Someone asked what I was thinking about and I realized I was sorting through images of pages I've read before and mental pictures of relevant places I've visited looking for a specific fact. I was wondering if other people think this way as well?



(I also wonder if this is why I do so poorly with verbal instructions and remembering people but easily remember two-dimensional things such as facts I've read, diagrams, and notes I've taken. I also wonder if it's relevant that the things I remember are in black and white.)



I've attempted to look this up but found mixed accounts. It almost seems HFA persons think in 3-dimentional images while Aspies think in 2-dimentional images. I can only speak for myself and I may just be strange.



So, how do you think and/or recall information?
