Not that I'm buying any of this...... but, y'all seem like "Right Brained Geniuses....."
Perhaps, it's not the high intelligence that makes us prone to CH, but "Left Brained Doltedness?"
In good humor,
Brad

But then which sided sufferer would that make us, right from overuse or left because of idle decay? And why don't we all suffer on the same side? It is a curious question, though, perhaps a link between which side of our brains we use most and on which side our HA's occur. Are there any ambidextrous CHers out there with HA's that frequently alternate from side to side?
BTW, I know some CHers suffer on alternating sides, I'm just joking at the thought  .

As a PhD.....I know something that many make false assumptions. The D......sometimes does stand for dummy. Having a PhD does NOT mean you are intelligent. In my case it meant I could withstand torture for 6 straight years right out of college (chemistry).
As for Pi. Darren Arronsky is THE most brilliant filmmaker I have ever seen. Besides Pi check out Requiem for a Dream. It is dark, disturbing, and stars Jennifer Connelly (yum yum). But...if you can look beyond the plot (addiction......drugs, tv, food, etc.), you will see the best screenplay or storyboards that have ever been put on film (in my opinion).
In Pi, I do believe the main character had clusterheadaches, no doubt.

Interview conducted by Ruby Rich from Inview.Kqed.Org concerning Darren Aronofsky's "Requiem For A Dream" and "Pi".
B. Ruby Rich (Ruby): I think you really put people into the space of, well, of somebody with a migraine headache. You know, how do you get there? Do you get migraines?
Darren Aronofsky (DA): No, a friend of mine who was a really talented actress, her career was basically devastated by her migraines, and I never realized they were so debilitating and I started talking to her and she, I started seeing artwork that came from, that migraine sufferers drew of their migraine attacks and it was exactly the type of things we were talking about, like the hand of god reaching down and pulling out a chunk of brain.
