Yes, I got that and I was suggesting that many of the guys I have known that are into D&D or similar also have ADD or ADHD. There is something about geek folk (of which I am one) that tend be inclined to one or both conditions.

One of my earliest memories - maybe about age three - is coming downstairs in the middle of the night to find my parents and their friends playing D&D with our kitchen being the DM's HQ. They started me on an early geek path in life.
