Omar feel ya Glasscutter. First, every member suspected oughta get an "NT" moniker instead of their regular avatars. Then they all should be rounded up and allowed only into specific forum - we'll call it Neurologischetypische Vogelkäfigverderbenfestung. Then we'll carefully analyze their specific behavioral patterns. And what of the final solution to getting rid of them after said research is completed? Scorch and Ban, dawg, scorch and ban.

...or if the site be weak of will to implement the aforementioned, then there should be a mandatory java dating simulator used before someone be allowed to post...if you get to first base, you aint posting.

Excuse me, got a diagnosis from Tony Attwood himself. Cannot get any more definitive without resurrecting Hans Asperger.

Like my childhood diagnosis in two sentences in the Dutch language, when Asperger was not commonly known, will help for that? There is no seal next to it, authenticating the text. That is somewhere in a computer owned by the Dutch government.

As long as people are feeling at home here and get useful answers for their life, why ban them?

And for the trolls and other pests, well they are being banned after some jokes. Aside from some trolls I never had direct problems with 'fake people'.

I'm diagnosed by a psychiatrist. There were autism tests done and discussions going on between him and my mother. I vaguely remember it and do not remember the tests. I only remember the waiting area and there was a huge playhouse that looked like a dollhouse and I spent my time in it When we be in the doctor's office, I be sitting at the table with my notebook and toys I would write or fiddle with the toys, I also would stare into space. Never said anything when my mother and the doctor be talking.


I surprised my last shrink when I remembered the date on the playhouse and the first name. I even surprised her when I remember one of our dates when we had our session. She had to go on the computer and look it up and said "Wow you are right." I had not seen that reaction in years. I last had it in high school.

Are you Omar Little? It ain't no thang either way.

Anyway,

Professor Michael Fitzgerald diagnosed me and he's the best person on autism in Ireland. He's co-written a book which has been published by JKP about succeeding in college with Asperger Syndrome. My GP was fortunately the President of the Irish Society for Autism so he knew who to recommend when I told him I suspected I had Asperger Syndrome.

I was diagnosed by Dr John B. Cochran. I wondered all during the testing how many times I had sung "The Ship John B." and kep singing it in my mind all during the 5 hours of testing and intense interview. It was kind of like having an old friend of mine there with me.

If I see him again I will tell him about it.

I like the word 'masquerade'.
It conjures up a picture of us all parading about wearing masks.

I once claimed to be diagnosed because I really thought I was until I found out otherwise.

As for who I am, my real name is not Social_Fantom even though I have claimed it was. I even claimed the underscore was my middle name. Laughing

No one is who they say they are, who they think they are, or who others think they are.

Everyone is someone else!
