The person who wrote the article, Don Tennant, was replying to comments he'd got about an earlier article here:
http://blogs.computerworld.com/another_ ... d_stallman


Which itself was in answer to comments he got about this article:
http://www.computerworld.com/action/art ... eId=327425

There are a lot of intelligent, well-written comments there but he (Tennant) doesn't really seem to get it yet.

Excellent response, srriv345. What gets me too is that he seemed to be implying that Aspies are closed-minded or not open to ideas from others, when he doesn't seem to be too open to ideas from autistic people that challenge his beliefs.
