| I felt an empty mood on xmas. Everyone was cracking jokes and laughing and I didn't laugh at one of them because I can't concentrate on what people are saying. I would have to ask "can you say that again and again?" Is this typical AS trait because this always happens to me and if I do get it, I us... |

When I was young, I was a railroad freak. Mostly subways and electric railway lines. I love high speed electrics.

Nonsense! There is no plot to do away with Auties or Aspies. Most people are indifferent.

| Why do I feel so empty? I can't get it. Is this depression? Or lack of motivation? I dont' know. I just sit in home for the entire day - doing nothing. All my interests are blurred and blank... my mind is blank. I can not sense anything. No joy or happiness... Not even anxiety or irritation... It's... |

| I've decided I'm not a person with Asperger's anymore. I paid the big bucks, took the tests, answered a barn full of questions, got the diagnosis, got the "piece of paper". I thought I would understand more- that my life would somehow make more sense. And for a few brief seconds it did. The fact is... |

| My whole childhood. I can grok that. I was a kid back in the early forties and the term "nerd" had not yet been invented. But I was a nerd for sure. Later on I found that I could not "read between the lines" very well and I was extremely literal-minded. No one ever heard of Aspergers Syndrome back ... |

I was 10 years old when WW2 ended. I wanted to be a bomb aimer on a B-17 or a B-29.
When I was older I wanted to be a mercenary soldier.
I ended up doing applied mathematics and software, because I was not physically fit for military duty (asthma). Damn!

I am also reading a delightful book called "How Mathematicians Think" by William Byers. I have already read about 1/6th of the book and I'm enjoying... |
