"Artists 4 Autism".... that reminds me: I have long wondered why people, when they want to support curing something (not just autism), say that they are "for" that particular ailment. You have people for breast cancer, people for multiple sclerosis, and so on. Using the language of political campaigns makes them sound like they support spreading it and making it worse. It's strange, but I digress...

I had the same thought... it gives the impression that they want to promote it... which is better than stamping it out in this case, but not by much...

I took it to understand that they want to just raise awareness of autism.
