i dunno about u but i dont have this at all. i think all the numbers are black. i guess that meens somethin but i dont know wat.

There's a guy who is reputed to be a savant who thinks in terms of colour and shape, and as a party piece recites Pi to 10,000 decimal places or something equally crazy. I forget his name, but he's also considered autistic.

We probably don't know as much as we think we do about the workings of the mind - you can only vouch for your own. My thoughts often seem silent - it's like I just have an idea from nowhere. Sometimes they are more narrative - so yeah, my thoughts are in English. It varies depending on subject matter.

I only see pretty pictures after a heavy night.... :D

**EDIT** - The guy's name is Daniel Tammet - I found this article...
