What an interesting claim! I can tell you wrote it on a computer.

The imagination is too elusive for the rigid construct of a word processor. I can get into the zone without drawing. However, the more difficult or creative problems always solve better on paper. How is it that a supercomputer cannot help solve these problems as well as a piece of paper?

Haha, yes. I find that if I'm presenting ideas in a flowing, narrative fashion, simply writing works. If, however, I'm trying to connect dots, come up with new ideas, etc, it has to be paper. Most note taking falls into the latter category for me.
