What's the question?

Is it about above-average intelligence, or is it about ADD?

Whatever. Just any comments and thoughts you have.

i think playing too much online tends to MAKE you have ADD...same as Nintendo...my 4 nephews grew up on it, and all have some ADD, one has a lot of it.

Ooooh, lets start a debate about how ADD doesn't actually exist and was invented by the pharmaceutical companies.

I doubt that there is a significant correlation between the 2... Its just a function of...

1) younger people are playing internet poker more than older people... Hell, when I was 18 and was doing manual labor for dick money, if there was internet poker, I would've been doing that too...

2) ADHD is a relatively newer diagnosis, so a) will be misdiagnosed often, and b) will OBV show up more in younger people than older

I've tried 3 different times to read this thread, but kept getting distracted halfway through it so it took me all day to get entirely through it. Do I have ADD?
