Thank you for writing this blog-you have brought me enlightenment! About an hour ago I heard the word "polymath" on a documentary about Thomas Harrisson - the barefoot anthropologist. As he was into lots of different things (as I am) I decided to look the word up and I now know after reading various pages I am a polymath and not a person with traits of aspergers syndrome as I previously thought. There are many similarities between the two. However, I know I don't have the syndrome because unlike someone with Aspergers, I do understand facial gestures and am able to empathise with other people, but like an aspergian, I have always been into many different things and told "I should concentrate on one at a time". Impossible. I think is everything is interesting if you know how to look at it and I intend to look at everything. Great Blog. Thanks.
