      Some get bit by the bug & some get consumed by it. i refer to almost all items by name & number or make up my own names & expect folks to keep up when I'm talking about them, hahahahahaha.

      it's embarrassing but i embrace all my madness & figure it's just one of my many cliff clavenn (Cheers) talents.

        Yeah I'm bad with names too. So it's less about level of obsession than it is the way my head works (or doesn't).

        Think it, be it.

              I gotta confess, I don't know the numbers for any of the gear.  Every time I need to mention something, I have to look it up on the store website.

                Really?.. That's weird, Chris… It took some time but by now I know most items by number... Do you aso have issues remembering names or names of beers and such?.. My mate - a huge beerlover - has this thing where he can't remember the names of the beers he loves... How do you cope with that?.. It's beyond me... I know price, expiry date (!), and random info like that about all the beers I love!..

                    I remember beer names, though human names are a challenge.  I just don't think of what I'm wearing today as "IHSH-72."  I think of it as a red buffalo check Western flannel.

                    Think it, be it.

                      Nope, I can remember names, I just don't bother with numbers.  Usually, I'll just go with a description, like "wabash work shirt" or "black rider's jacket" and that works fine.

                      Oddly, I can remember lots of watch movement numbers with no problem (I can tell you the difference between an ETA 2824 and a 2836, or a Poljot 3133 and a 31681, for instance).

                          You sure?  How about the variations on the 7750 chronograph movement?  My favorite is the 7753.

                              No need to say chronograph when describing a 7750 everybody knows that 🙂

                                This is good advice.

                                Ok watching it…

                                      Well, this is a first. I'm up at 0300 to leave the house at 0445 to take a two hour drive and be ready to go at 0700 to evaluate a culinary certification. My brain is so confused right now. It senses there's coffee, but it feels like night time.

                                        Sounds like a dream, take your heavyweight clothes off and do a lap of the block, if nobody flinches you're either dreaming or have moved to Amsterdam. Tough wake up time!

                                            @Seul, I have always struggle to remember street names, Can't even tell you the name of streets 1 block from where I live, they just refuse to stick. I describe places by land markers or use Google Maps ::). No problems knowing my 33 from 62, 72, 86 etc. Added I have network addresses stuck from every network I've ever worked on for the past 15 years (this is extremely unusual). Mind you, I also know Pi to 50+ digits…
