| I was really tempted to join the TA (UK Territorial Army - part timers) back when I shared a house with someone who was really into it. I think I wanted to do it to get that feeling of belonging, as GH described. Thankfully, I somehow knew (long before dx) that I would be really unhappy with militar... |

I really missed it!

| I would also advise you to consider the differences between a psychologist and a psychiatrist. The former will try and diagnose and then offer helpful advice, the latter will diagnose and then offer mind numbing pills. Sorry, that sounds a bit biased but that's what I happen to think, from personal ... |

I love CLI - it's a far more powerful way of using a computer. I don't know if I'd feel differently if I had cut my computing teeth after GUIs became the norm.
I pefer CLIs so much that I've installed CygWin, giving me proper Unix like comands in a Windows environment. Perfect.  |

| Hello one and all. I seem to flash from one extreme to the other these days. Up until the end of December I was here pretty much all day every day. Since then I haven't been back, partly because of being away for Xmas, and then I returned to find my work has cut off all non-work based Internet acces... |

| Having had time to sit and think on this, I kinda feel that you could characterise pretty much any kind of extreme personality traits in a very negative, disturbing light. After all, not all criminals are Aspies, not by a long shot. Aren't we just the easy targets for these kind of cheap shots from ... |

| I think there's going to be varying degrees of validity to that, depending on the individual. My own Dad would fit most of those criteria very closely. He's not been diagnosed officially, but it's a pretty fair bet. On my part, most of those do not apply, or certainly not in the specific way describ... |
