| As this is a very delicate subject, everybody stop the name calling and keep things civil if you want this discussion to continue. I meant "jerk" in jest. Really. Sarcasm doesn't translate well online. I'm illustrating my lack of political correctness...nevermind, I'll edit. Yes, Burzum, I called y... |

| Our species (Homo Sapiens) has been around for about 250,000. That's not even enough time to develop different races. That's right. There is no such thing as race, as there is more variation within the "races" than between them. Please stop spouting this nonsense. It is demonstrably evident that ra... |

| If I am in a bright, loud environment, sure I'll get overwhelmed. Crowds are generally loud, and I've got a need for more personal space than usual, which makes groups of people a bit difficult to deal with. My social anxiety used to be worse, and I suppose that was stressful, too, but in an interna... |

Where ever there is a lighting section, anywhere. :P Least friendly places are places with unfinished ceilings and dry air. Because you get thirst... |

| The part where he becomes fairly animated is right after 1:40 and gets pretty intense after 4:00. I'm just curious if a typical aspergers male could actually pull off the dynamics of his facial expressions, tonality and gestures. There's no way to tell if he has Asperger's. He would need to be diag... |

| He seemed to have a great command for tone. So do actors. However, he knew exactly what he was doing, ie how to manipulate people. I'm not saying that can't be taught. It sure can, and observed, too, by those on the spectrum. Hmm.... So, it's really hard to tell from a speech what he really is. Howe... |

| :( I am very sorry to hear of your plights. My fiancee had a bad accident before I met him and needed two back surgeries. At 24, his body became ruined. The road to recovery is very long. He's doing better now and is back to work. I guess that's why physically disabled people call the non-physically... |

| No. It's as bad as being a white supremacist, an anti-Semite, etc, in the sense that it's saying one is better than the other. Aren't we supposed to be eradicating this train of thought? Edit: Plus, bench-marking humanity at 1800 for "specialization" is as ignorant as saying human transport started ... |
