My ex-boss used to have me spend hours of doing Powerpoint because he claimed to be a &quot;visual learner&quot;.  I always theorized that this sounded like a load of BS.  My theory was that he was just too lazy or ADD to actually sit down and read and comprehend things.<p>I learn things looking at graphs.  I learn things by reading but, it just takes more focus.  I never believed in this theory of learning.  There are just sometimes better ways to convey different information.<p>Some people are idiots and some people have enough passion or care enough to put more effort in.
