In a movie with "Rage Reduction Therapy" he did. The link from 3 years ago does not work anymore due to copy write violations.

With speach, that describes me. Most on the spectrum simply do not speak. I have a niece who I am sure is on the spectrum though my brother (Her Dad) does not believe it as he does not see what I see, and she did not learn to speak until she was five onwards and had to have speach therapy. She did hnd signals and used her facial expressions so well we often did not even realize she had asked us for things without speaking! A very clever child with a beautiful mind.
