the robot whisperer part one.

i suppose it would be easier to call myself a repairman, but this would imply that i am something i am not. i can certainly fix your computer, your toaster, your record player, but not because i possess a wide array of tools or know-how. rather, i have an innate ability to communicate with electronic devices. this ability became apparent to me rather early in life; i found it difficult to fall asleep whilst my parents watched television downstairs, not due to the volume as they kept this quite low, but because i could hear (or at least feel) the high-pitched frequency the box emitted while in use. other people have told me that they, too, are able to detect this frequency, but i have not met any who can understand it. with the exception of myself, of course.
