The Beautiful Regularity of the Periodic Table of Elements: or, Really no one thought maybe I was autistic? (Or is that even a label I should have known back then?)

No one noticed I was probably autistic even after I memorized the whole Periodic Table in eighth grade (along with the 27 Amendments to the US Constitution). But am I better or worse off for it?
