Ive worked with autistic kids for several years.
at the time (18years ago) there was little knowledge as to the cause.
(although boys are almost twice as likely to be affected than girls)

lets face it the almighty bucks the bottom line.
something like 500,000 Americans die each year from tobacco related diseases.
or 3000 each month from shootings.
Compare the reaction to 9/11 and imagine if we had a WAR on Tobacco,
or War on Guns..
