I can multitask auditorially... I can hear two or three different voices, speaking at once, and separate and understand all of them. Most of the time, anyway... my sister in law's voice seems to override that, and I can't understand her half the time... which has lead to her 'jokingly' suggesting I must be deaf...

"True or False: Women are better at multitasking, while men are better when concentrating on a single task from beginning to completion. True. Ruben Gur, PhD, and Raquel Gur, MD, PhD, at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, measured blood flow and activity in men's and women's brains, and they found repeatedly that women use more parts of their brains when given a wide variety of verbal and spatial tasks. They believe that this may contribute to women's ability to focus on a number of different things at one time."

Quoth WhiteRose View Postit's not so sexist if it's based on physical factors.
As for multi-tasking, I can hold an IM conversation, take a phone call, read a manuscript for changes, and enter those changes in to the electronic copy of the document, while listening to music. Does that count as multi-tasking?

Mr Zel is also good at multitasking. Or at least now he is, after Lil' Zel came along. Takes some multitasking when one has to give the baby a bottle while picking a cloth up from the floor with the toes - while on the phone...A theory states that if anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for, it will be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.
Another theory states that this has already happened.
