I'm worse - I not only hear rhythms in windshield wipers (love the new VW
commercial with John Mayer, btw), rainstorms and even power tools/machinery
(desktop inkjet printers are very good for this) I can sometimes hear
lyrics. Although with machinery it's usually repetitive chants - onomotapia.
Many of you have met me and know I'm nuts, so this should convince the rest
of you.
