Ability: Coordinate system rotation. I can move 3d objects around in my mind with ease and it is clear in group settings that most people are not good at this.

Knowledge: heat transfer. I've done years of theoretical study and more years of practical application of heat transfer.

Kids should have access to CAD early in life. I grew up with it and mentally picturing, moving, and manipulating 3D objects in my mind is just second nature. I can even keep track of orientation (Front, Back, Left, Right, Top, Bottom views) with minimal effort.
