| Well, "60 Minutes" (at least in America) only covers topics that can be portrayed in a highly sensationalist and alarmist tone. In order to get such a topic onto "60 Minutes", you'd have to come up with something along the lines of tap water causing autism in young children. The show attracts viewer... |

| So this would be like... a socialist Asperger's commune where talented artists create and sell works to benefit the community? I think it would need to be located in some other country, because there would need to be some form of militaristic suppression and complete restriction of travel in order t... |

| Since I'm usuall pretty quiet, I often just observe people in social situations when I can't find anything to say. I feel that I have good insights into people's behaviors and intentions within their social interactions, but then again I have Asperger's so I could just be imagining it! When the resu... |

| I don't know what a new diagnosis will do for you exactly--and I'm sure that different doctors would diagnose you differently. And if you go into your session with the intent of getting un-diagnosed, that could obviously affect the results. Besides, autism/Asperger's is a spectrum; it's not just som... |

| I've had to deal with NTs like that as an aspie. The best thing to do is just to subtly convince them that they're wrong without them having to admit it. The more you tell them that they're wrong, the more entrenched they get in defending themselves even if they know the truth. They will defend them... |

| No, no, no--When dealing with bullies, you should not try to explain to them that they're mistaken and that you're not actually an idiot because you get good grades, etc. They don't care about that at all; they just like bullying; It's fun for them. The solution is mainly to just ignore them, but st... |

| I really don't think you need to worry about what your diagnosis will be; you won't need to change anything about yourself because of it. You shouldn't worry about what your professors think about about you personally--if you're having trouble getting assignments done or finishing tests, you should ... |

| Hi! I was banned from IRC about a week ago. Here's what happened: I got disconnected from IRC because my client was having problems. I was using the name Praetorius. When I restarted my client, I came back in as Praetorius1. One of the channel operators banned me, saying that I was evading a ban. Ap... |
