Ron, I see you did not catch the fact that I didn't mean common enemy in a strict sense of the term.

Also, since you brought it up, please explain to me and everyone else how I do not behave appropriately, as it relates to you?

You didn't catch it either. That's part of the problem. You need better social and communication skills.

But why does he *need* better social and communication skills? It's not like he is trying to get a job as a real estate agent or sales person. Some people are perfectly happy with poor social and communication skills. It's not like people with poor social and communication skills are not allowed to exist, or should be forced to improve their social and communication skills. If some people prefer poor skills, so be it! It's not your job to be social police -- in fact the concept of a social police could be downright dangerous. It's a free country; Live Free or Die.

Tis true. However, his behavior in public has placed him in situations which could at least be misunderstood by others and at worst lead, in the right circumstances, to arrest or to violence visited upon him (not that I would condone the latter).

But you could take the attitude that given a free market and freedom of choice, that's his risk to take. Unfortunately, his family would suffer as well.

They're saying that with the "posioning" of the air, water, and food, a lot of people will be autistic in the future.

For me it partially goes with liking big machines, and hope for a utopian society, which I see trains as a part of. But I also like the whole structured environment and rules based thing. Which I think is how systems are run. Versus the @#$@#!@***^&(& who drives on a shoulder on the right, then at the light think he's going to make a left.

I was wondering if it's a thing having to do with a special rules based environment. Think about all the folks who are doing all these trips with such specific schedules. It's all systems.

Plus, when I eat a microwave meal, I always have the compartment that's the main course on the right. :)

Dogs are domesticated companion animals. Their place is indoors. Putting them in "the doghouse" alienates them from the pack (your family) and encourages anti-social behavior.

I've lived in an apartment all my life, and I've always had at least one dog (from 1990 to 1993, I had 2).

They're saying that with the "posioning" of the air, water, and food, a lot of people will be autistic in the future.

Except that the mercury theory of autism is not generally believed by most people with qualifications in either psychiatry or psychology. That is not to say it isn't true; it just isn't the mainstream academic consensus right now. But mainstream academia has been wrong before.

The current theory of autism revolves around a gene-environmental interaction model, with most of the weight on a genetic theory because autism is fairly highly heritable. As Ron said, it is likely a multi-gene, and multi-factorial phenomenon.

It takes forever to get these done. It was a long time between DSM III(Revised) and DSM-IV.

When we understand a lot more of the brain's chemistry and function and the receptors and what they do, maybe this process will change and become more useful.

That's a fricken 0x7fff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff ffff way away...

There was a feature in New Scientist not long ago (within the past 18 months), I think it was entitled something like "The Ultimate Key: Understanding the Brain" or something of that elk. Google turned up nothing but this.

Basically, NS concluded that despite all the research, we basically don't know how the brain works on a biochemical level. I agree.

We know there are four messenger molecules (i.e. seretonin, etc.) and a bunch of other flagging chemicals, but we really don't know what they mean in what context. Using drugs on the brain (e.g. seretonin reuptake inhibitors, and other chemicals that affects the other messnger molecules) seem like to me to be using a blowtorch and monkey's wrench on a computer. But that might be the best tools we have so far.

Agreed. We have very crude tools. But look at the progress: Drugs like Zyprexa and Risperdal have fewer side effects than Haldol because we've tweaked the effect they have on Dopamine and serotonin receptors. What that means, though, is you can, for the first time, treat both the hallucinations and the zombie at the same time while reducing the feeling that you're pouring cement in somebody's head.

It's a baby step in the right direction.

She can remain outside and can even come close to my dog, but once she starts yelling and jumping around he'll get very upset and start barking. Of course I have him on a short leather leash and the girl will run away and continue playing in her garage and my dog just continue's with his activities.
The only time my shepherd can get aggressive is when he's walking with my wife and I'm not around. I think he's much more protective of her than he is with me. Many of the same people that he likes with me he will not let get close to my wife.
Like I said I have a lot of space for him to run and next to my property is an abandoned farm which I let him run loose only after being very sure no one's out there, including deer. He loves to bark and scare this family of deer that live on that old farm.
I have a two story home so he has plenty of space to run up and down, plus he likes to patrol the garage and check if any is outside of it.
German Shepherds are very smart almost human like in intelligence.

Are there different levels of severity in Autisism. Can someone have a job and function day to day as an adult with it. Or are they pretty much a ward of the state unabled to keep jobs, etc.
I watched a documentary about autism and children and one of the cases showed a young girl who hated wearing clothing and had an incredible ability to decorate cakes like a chef/baker. The only problem was after completing the cake she would destroy it by punching her hands into the cake.
Also, a coworker on my job has a older teenage daughter who hates having her hair long and must keep it cut very short.
Its a very strange mental disorder.

I'll buy 30 years ago. But I'm not so sure about 60-100 years ago. We still have dead zones and toxic fish, worse in other nations, but at least things have been cleaned up here in the last few decades. PA, the Great Lakes, etc.
We're getting there.

So what if his website's about himself? My website is about myself too. I'm hardly a narcissist.

I like Alex's site. It's fun to click around.

There are different levels of severity. Temple Grandin has autism and is renowned for her study of animals and design of cowpens (I've seen them). A friend of mine is autistic. He has trouble hanging on to jobs and would function best with a "job coach" but he does work (he was a competent computer operator) and finished college. He's married and lives with his wife in a rented house.

I have seen similar situations as well and I must say it is downright shameful and disgusting to be fighting and pushing people out of the way over a window.
