Guest guest Posted July 30, 2004 Report Share Posted July 30, 2004 I never claimed to be an expert. If you read closely, you'll see that I mitigate any statement I make that is a conjecture with such phrases as " it seems to me " , or " I think that... " or " ...the impression that I get... " . I don't know why you are so determined to make me out to be an idiot, but one would think that with the bullying most of us receive as individuals on the autistic spectrum, we should stick together instead of trying to find fly shit in a pile of black pepper. (My dad's phrase--translation:nitpicking with the purpose of showing off or making oneself seem superior.)
