Re: Autism article in wired magazine

[Guest guest]

I saw an article about this same topic including the Silicon Valley part in

the Macon telegraph quite a while back. I was interested because I am also

an engineer. I am surrounded by engineers at work and know several that

could well be on the spectrum - really smart guys who know their systems in

detail and tend to have hearts of gold, but will drive you crazy, especially

in meetings. Now that I am familiar with autistic features, I don't get mad

at them anymore...well, I try not to anyway.
