Yes, I agree with Jeri. Mr. Happy started the thread looking for answers and I'm guilty of being one to hi-jack it. I should probably start another thread. Still, as a passing thought, being closely associated with the syndrome, I can't help but wonder what happened to Asperger's folks in times past, and I wonder if they even survived in large numbers.
                Today, he have more humane ways of dealing with these kinds of problems, so many people survive in greater numbers than they would have in the past, and I wonder if this has something to do with the large increase in the numbers of cases.
