Blind people and superfast speech

Interesting article: http://www.scientificamerican.com/a...people-process/

TLDR: Blind people can often process speech really fast, up to 2.5 times as fast as sighted people.

I had always heard that blind people had a more "acute" sense of hearing (could detect softer sounds and discriminate between slightly different sounds more easily), but didn't know that the increase in ability also extended to processing speed. Pretty cool.

I think it was Russell Peters who said that deaf kids are as strong as like 13 gorillas.
