I seem to have a knack for picking the right search terms to get results from google.
Wonder if it's related to the knack I have for "spatial" memory.
I used to drive my boss *nuts*. I'd have several big stacks (8" or more!) of paper on my desk, but if I was asked for something, I could reach into the right pile and be within a few pages of the right spot.
That also helped enormously when they still had printed manuals for software. Somebody would ask me a question, I could grab the manual (or the right one from a multi-volume set) and flip to if not the exact page, within a couple of pages of the right spot.

Very useful doing computer support work :-)
