Thank you for the replies, everyone.
IdahoRose and shortcircuit3, my situation is similar because my social isolation has increased as well. And I don't feel like I can do anything about it because social interaction has become so draining and awkward. |

| I know some people believe that AS gets "better" as you get older, and in some ways that's true for me because my symptoms are not as noticeable as they were when I was younger. But if I look past the symptoms at the way I actually feel, I've gotten worse. Because as I get older I increasingly under... |

This is only seven minutes long, but I think it qualifies:

| I enjoyed it. It wasn't the best show I have seen but I will watch a few more episodes to decide whether I want to continue following it. It was fun although I think the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park looked better and I found some of the special effects to be fairly bad. Yes! That's exactly what I tho... |

| It was ok, I guess. Some parts were cool, but the way they introduced all those "mysteries" seemed kind of artificial to me. I felt like I didn't really care about why those petroglyphs were there, or how the sixers tie into the whole thing. But I guess I'll keep watching for a couple more episodes.... |

I'm curious to see what Spielberg came up with this time. The trailer looks nice:

| GPS's can have uncertainties of up to 10's of nanoseconds. deviation of 10nanoseconds, and they were faster by 60nanoseconds. I think that the 10nanosecond inaccuracy doesn't matter with that time... either it's 50 or 70... Tens of nanoseconds, not ten. So it could be off by 50 or 70 or so. Also, I... |

| "KLG" is a pretentious, stuck up snob. She was when she was on the show with Regis (& boy did Regis really go even LOWER with the new blonde of the month!) and she STILL is on the Today show, she never really gives Hoda a chance to speak. She often talks over her interviewees (I suppose THAT'S ... |

| If I didn't know what the segment was about, I'd have thought it was some kind of terrible parody. I think that singer is awful. I guess you don't have to be a good singer to be on Broadway. |
