Heres the Autistic Adults
http://www.autismvox.com/ heres-the-autistic-adults/
Researchers pulling back the veil on adult autism read the headline in a Vancouver Sun article on July 20th. Noting that autism, and in particular Asperger Syndrome, is being recognized in more and more adults, the article cites these examples: A doctor who got "upset when people didn't say what they mean" and who seems to have a sort of finger and nose "tic." A man who "organized his wife's CDs by the composer's date of birth and fell asleep on the floor during social events." These might just seems "quirks" and "eccentricities" and then a third example: An office clerk who, "obsessed with not walking on the cracks between the tiles on the sidewalk," beat up a window because she was in his way as he walked to the bus stop.
