I have a friend who compares doing math in her head with running with scissors.

Always good at higher math, never mastered simple addition, subtraction, multiplying or dividing. Uncle had given me his college...

...math book and I was on algebra in 3rd grade. Bizarre.

Did great in college with a slide rule. Calculators not yet invented.

I wasn't allowed to use a calculator as a kid. It didn't make me better or faster, just more frustrated. High IQ, poor working memory.
