Outside of the tests? No, and I doubt I ever will. Math is pretty useless beyond the basics. |

Do woman 15 onward want sex or is it social construct?
Just had to pop in and say that make sure you don't generalize all women over 15. Some want to have sex and some DON'T. |

| Well, a new semester is starting so when you pick you're seat try to pick one that's by people, preferably by a girl. Then ask her about an assignment or bring up the strange weather or ask her if she's going to some campus event. |

| Go to the University of Wyoming. The tuition is lower than most states and their engineering college is among the best. Your student fees also pay for things like doctors visits and therapy on campus. It isn't perfect for aspies though. P.S. I'm making a shameless plug. I go to UW and it would be c... |

Josh & Radha gave it their all in a movie which no studio wanted and an egotistical Norwegian director just had to mess up because of silly schedule conflicts. This film is the most wonde... |

| One thing that helped in Britian, I felt, was that were certain social rules of politeness or whatever one calls it. Things like bus ques and all that (I miss bus ques). Anyway, if one can learn and adhere to these social rules- and they are fairly straightforward rules, mostly its learning how to ... |

It helps me get by the stuff that For a lot of subjects like that (mostly math), it's been my memory that has saved me.

I don't think they are related. I would think that a Candida overgrowth would cause physical problems, not mental ones. I think it's just hypothetical.
Where did you hear about this?
If it was definitely true, then people would do a Candida cleanse and their autism would be gone. |

| Well, I hate baths, so I haven't done that in years. I do shower every morning though, unless I'm running late, in which case that's the first thing to go. But even if I don't shower, I always wash my hair. My body doesn't seem very dirty to me. |

| This is all great information. I could always take my daughter to an allergist and have the testing done so I wouldn't be guessing if a milk allergy is there. When she had colic at 2 weeks old and while I was nursing, I went on a total milk/whey free diet and her colic stopped in one week. I think ... |
