> Not sure if this is because of his alleged Asperger or something but I sometimes wonder if the the dude is able to separate facts from fiction. Is this even an aspie trait? Speaking as an aspie myself I'd guess it's more to do with empathy. I tend to have a less instinctive and more rational sense of empathy, and I've noticed other aspies are similar. You could convince me that potentially harming humans is a net-good, and ethical, so long as you demonstrate the value of taking such a risk. Eg, "if someone is willing to take the risk, and there's a potentially a huge reward for humanity in doing these trials, then perhaps it's justifiable".
