| 1. How do you feel about the point we are at with the research on Asperger’s Syndrome and exactly what needs to be looked into?

| As unfortunate and scary a moment, you did NOTHING wrong. Granted, in any other scenario rather than the heat of THAT moment, you would have done differently. I didnt have an issue with hitting people unless they hit me(as in fighting), so I cant really give any advice there. But as an adult on the ... |

She will use any of that against you if she doesnt like you. And she might not even hate you or anything, but she just isnt interested in what you have to say. I... |

Businesses are using this rash rationality that hiring someone for a job thats "beneath them" will lead them to be less productive or progressive... |

| You're 28, at this point, if someone thinks you're scary, it depends on who's scared. A younger female coworker for example, I'd say stay away. They arent old enough to have matured yet. If they're of similar age and/or older, talk to them saying, Im sorry if I've scared somehow. not my intentions, ... |
