This was my thought exactly. The most disturbing aspect to this whole deal is the response of the administrators who I assume represent a good deal of the community. The researches who contributed this project ought to be thanked and reward

Thanks for the comment and I hope with your diagnosis comes some comfort (I am also 33). There's a saying that I think is worth repeating here: "If you've met one person with Autism, you've met one person with Autism&q
