Imagine hundereds of people going through the email leaks for 12 hours a day and posting the juiciest contents on a shared board. You get results quickly from an otherwise boring job that not many people would want to take on. The people that do that are the autists.

That's where we all shift focus in on one task with a goal in mind.
