Another thought would be if the eyes were heterochromic, or bi-colored. I like how that yellow eye looks, but what if it turned red or blue closer to the pupil?

| Allow me to clarify myself. We understand each other on a level I do not think humans have. One Aspie has a greater depth of empathy for another, but none or diminished capacity for a non-Aspie, or at least this has been my experience. I do not recall saying we concur on viewpoints. Quite the opposi... |

| What if the changes weren't immediately obvious? Like something under the surface. Difference in muscular and nervous structure, alterations in the level of chemicals in the brain as well as alternate neural pathways and similar differences. While having a physical difference to mark an alien race w... |

Cro-Magnon and Neanderthal coexisted for a period in time and were also able to interbreed, and I cannot think of anyone who will tell me that Cro-Magnons and Neanderthals are the same type of species.

| And I suppose that is the crux of our difference, then. You believe that we are a part of the genetic melting pot of Homo Sapiens Sapiens. I do not. If Aspergers is, indeed, a DISORDER that would be true. However, I do not believe it to be one. This is something that is recurring and genetic, not to... |

E.E. Knight? I might have to collect a copy of that book for myself.

| No, he cannot. However, I long ago ceased considering myself 'human' in favor of 'aspergian'. Although the Somali and Bengal tigers are both tigers, they are distinct species. In much the same way, I have drawn a line that separates me from normal human beings. I am actually proud to say that I have... |

So do you recommend it? If so, I'll swallow my pride and try a copy.

I have expressed my views before that it is my firm belief that an Aspergian mind is greater to a human mind, and affords us greater advantages. To me, it is as plain as the nose on my face. I will never understand how individuals from both sides of the equation fight me on this.

I'm almost afraid to touch that one, seeing as I hate it when someone butchers a classic.

Just finished "The Glass Books of the Dream Eaters: Volume II" and now I'm moving on to "The Dark Volume" by the same author.

| Oh yeah, I'd love to go there myself. I've actually researched gravitic propulsion and alternate methods to propel a spacecraft so I CAN go there. Unfortunately, my current model costs around 2 billion dollars to produce... And I agree with the math > girl statements as well. Math is MUCH simpler. -TB |

Still, right now Jupiter is very bright. With my telescope, I can see the red spot and the four tiny white flecks that are its four la... |

Unless you calculate the distances between various bodies, graph the speed of rotating star clusters, etc.
