Swan song?

[Guest guest]

Not really; not yet. But this post should begin an ever decreasing

presence.

What I needed from ASPIRES, I got; my wife and me are fine.

What I could give to ASPIRES, I did; hoping it might be useful to some.

Now, when I think of giving more - answering posts - I'm coming up blank.

Autism hasn't changed, and won't. Human nature hasn't changed that I

can see. Those who post here have changed, but their stories haven't.

Same problems at root demand much the same answers. People here,

younger than I by far, have the answers.

I've nothing more to give. I'm jaded; need a change; need time for

other interests.

My *intention* (The road to Hell is paved with...) is just read the mail

for awhile. Maybe *rarely* answer one By degrees, slowly move on; fade

away like MacArthur's Old Soldier.

But I was raised " old-fashioned " . It would be churlish to just fade

away without a word. I've had a very good run in ASPIRES and enjoyed

meeting many fine people from whom I learned a lot. I'll miss many, and

hope some will want to correspond privately.
