Allow me to offer my assistance in whatever way i can.

I am going to offer SFT to idiots sometime later this year. Many

people suffer from Stupidity and I believe that my Stupidity Freedom

Therapy would not only be beneficial to such people, but would cure

them while providing much needed stress-relief to those of us who

have to endure them and their disorder.

In some ways this smells like the " reparative therapy " once used to 'cure ' GLBT people. It would appear to work, but in reality it's dangerous, and the only thing really happening is that the patient (for lack of a better term, though guinea pig might be more appropriate) is not reporting anything as they have learned what the psychiatrist wants to hear.

Sorry, I accidentally hit the send button. It would seem that with Asperger's it would do just the opposite.

Yep.

If confronted with electro-shock therapy to " treat " my autism, I am

not too sure I wouldn't say " I'm converted! I'm converted! " to get

my rear end out of there.

I'm not sure what you are saying.

I agree with you if you are saying AS people would say they

are " cured " to get out of having to take future " cures " . I think

some AS people would do it if the cure being offered was severely

uncomfortable.

I must admit I would be tempted to hit someone if they were

constantly tapping me.

I agree. I don't like being touched in the first place, so someone constantly prodding me would be asking for trouble.
