Those who have sympathy for Hummers have obviously not nearly been run down by one piloted by some capitalist pig's trophy wife and her three screaming kids.

Eh, so did I. Only person who could understand me was my brother.

However Laurentius, your hastily-Googled cites does nothing to disprove Loinburgers stats.

Now I'm screwed. Instead of using classified foreign government documents I'm going to have to cope with Google, oh no!

Yes, "Scott Kiser, DDS" is a far better authority on mental health statistics than the Center for Disease Control. Though how a dentist became such an expert on psychiatry is beyond me.

Tell me: is there anything I can say, is there any article to which I can link, that will convince you that maybe, just maybe, your offensive stereotyping of Americans is just a bit misguided? The fact that you take "Scott Kiser, DDS" as a more authoritative source than the Center for Disease Control (OMGWTF foreign documents not written by a dentist!), and the fact that 4% constitutes an "average" to you, causes me to suspect that your head is shoved too far up your ass for you to see reason, but I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt one last time.

Loinburger, look I'm not a nutcase. You might be right here, perhaps I was a little misguided by my own bias(it just feels so good). I can assure you I dont have the physical flexibility to showe my head up to my ass. I used to be very flexible in this sence too...

Anyway. Here we are from "most to many". Many americans use antidepressants. This has no correlation to the amount of peaople with aspergers does it, sensei?

Wow, laurentius, your douchebaggery has been well proven. It only took a handful of posts, too.

Good work, gentlemen.

JohnT,

Lots of kids invent their own stuff, particularly twins. Matt took it a step farther, though. He literally couldn't deal with English, so he substituted something else (mattspeak, I guess).

Anyway, I'd say Asperger's qualifies as a "syndrome." That strikes me as a nice neutral word. Using LD is somewhat misleading because while Aspergers can impair one's language skills, it can also boost other skills... so it's not just a negative.
