Guest guest Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Greetings from Romania ! After my presentation at Cluj, considered successful, I got many more contacts and requests for advice from people; got invited to courses and trainings for various groups (basic medical system; teachers/support); and after some time(?) and/or because (??) of that, I noticed an increase in confusion-to-action, inertia and other states a, Kalen and others have described... also, for instance, I got enticed to install and use for the first time in my life Yahoo Messenger and conversed with a lady hundreds of km away on both fun and tense topics. However, when I looked at the 'logs' I noticed Picasso/Dali-like confusion of disconnected collage of topics. Should this be normal Messenger style ? or my inexperience at superposed real-time turn-taking ? In principle I got a translation 'contract' by e-mail that could earn me a bit of money, have started some 10-20% of work but I keep 'hovering' tensely and confusely about (not) continuing the effort coherently to 'deliver on deadline'. And on top of this, the quite understanding president of our Autism organization kindly asked me to help her select a lot of books to purchase from the West to build the organization's lending library keeping a balance of opinions. She got the full list of AAPC: http://asperger.net/index_all_titles.htm and I also told her there are Kingsley, Future Horizons and also universal/scientific publishers. (don't know how I do it, but when I'm asked for advice I tend to complicate any mission ;-), before solving anything) Some parents here were in absolute ecstasy about Maurice, but others about the (seeming more reasonable) advice of Theo Peeters. The president liked Olga Bogdashina - quite realistic warnings about sensory issues and differences in perspectives. So this is (a part of) the audience, and I wonder what *credible* to *them* additions to knowledge and attitudes could shift the balance to something we can be proud of and really live well with. Thank you for thinking about these, Mircea Pauca, Bucuresti, Romania Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
