The creator of Pokemon, Satoshi Tajiri has been confirmed to be diagnosed with Asperger's from many different sources and when he was a kid, we was really big on bugs and bug collecting which inspired him to make Pokemon which not only you could collect bugs, but other different creatures too.
He got into video games as well and then became interested in that as well as bugs and he often skipped school because he was so fascinated in other things so he did not do the best in school either and he worked on Pokemon for six years to make sure everything was exactly right and many were unsure that the games would even sell, of course, they were wrong and the games sold like hot cakes and they, along with Final Fantasy VII were responsible for making RPGs mainstream in the United States.
And then you have me who is OBSESSED with Pokemon ever since six years old and I still love it so it does not surprise me that I can relate to the games and all of the detail, there is a lot of detail. I've said this many times, but it is a game that's easy to play for children, but hard to master with all of the hidden game mechanics and the like.
Do you have a reliable source for that?
Arghh!
It was pretty big news for awhile, and I had read an article on USA Today about it. I can't find that article otherwise I would post it, but it talked about Bill Gates having been officially diagnosed. I wish I had the evidence... next time I talk about such things I'll makes sure to site my sources.
I've seen a lot of speculation regarding Bill Gates, but I have never seen anything stating he has an official diagnosis, nor have I seen a report of him announcing he has it.
Steven Spielberg doesn't have Asperger's. I really wish people would stop saying that he did. Jesus Christ, learn to use Google.
The singer Ladyhawke has Asperger's. I find her inspiring since she's a lesbian with Asperger's, and so am I.

I love this unintentional freudian slip, which could be appled to many who frequent PPR here at WP.

She also writes all her own songs and plays every instrument on her recordings. Plus she makes kickin' New Wave music. She reminds me of a female (and much more famous) version of me.
