Albert Einstein

According to a neurologist friend of mine who tried to get a sample of Einy's brain to study, there was no longer any viable pieces available anymore.

As for the reconstructions, I can't really say. I've never seen or heard of them. I'd have to assume they're taken from the pictures that were taken before his brain got dissected the first time.

i didn't read this entire post, but i have heard this about Einstein before.
i do not believe Einstein had AS. but i do believe Sir Issac Newton did. and i like Newton way more. in math and physics, his stuff always was always my favourite. Einsteins work in physics seems....unnatural and ockward to me. but Newtons sits very well. i understand it w/ no effort, see where it came from, how it works, etc.
I read on some site a while ago, that some1 who knew Einstein in person, claims he did not have AS or dyslexia or any of these disorders people claim he did have.

I have heard something similar, but this comes from people who don't know any of those conditions very well (i.e., only familar with the classic Kanner's head-banging, institutionlized version, etc.). The reason I've infered this? Because one comment was [paraphrased] "Einstein was too social, he couldn't have been autistic". This shows a very inexperienced viewpoint of ASDs because autistics can be social, though perhaps some have more of a want and ability to do so than others.

That's true because researchers who I talked with whist doing their tests, note me as a keen conversationalist on their result statements, and it's true, once you speak to me, I never shut up and become almost too social... (I wonder if Einstein was the same way)

I swear I was rather intimidating to those researchers and doctors, and I was purposely at times too (just to show them that a HFA is more capable than what's expected)... Because they probably expected an HFA like myself, to not be able to speak so much coherently or to be a social creature at all

In childhood, my neighbor two doors down was an old man whose Physics teacher at Princeton was Dr. Einstein.

He told me that Einstein stunk horribly. "We all hated him." he said.
