| Landline numbers have recently been phased out in the area where I live. Even as part of a cable Internet package? These days, at least in many places here in the U.S.A., landline phone service is offered by cable Internet providers, rather than as a standalone service. Is that not the case where y... |

| I assumed he was autistic after reading a biography on him (author: Ashlee Vance). This biography he collaborated on and he seemed to be hinting at being autistic and provided details as evidence. I can't understand why anyone knowledgeable about ASD would doubt that he is. He is an entrepreneur, no... |

| I gather that this is the same very toxic "Miracle Mineral Solution" (bleach) that became a fad for a while for parents to give to their autistic children, in the form of enemas? Yes it is the same MMS fake medicine. It has quite a history: Wikipedia: Miracle Mineral Supplement Here's how... |

| Its debatable if profound autism should be extended to at least 45-50% of autistics those with an IQ of below 85, serious impairment and no ability to live independently That would kind of dilute the direness of the "profound" term. It's a slippery slope to creating a bunch of terms to pi... |

| If you don't know, TM is a bit suspect because you're supposed to pay for a bit of tuition and to get a personalised mantra from a qualified teacher. Which absolutely makes it sound like a scam. I have found TM to be quite helpful to me, even though I rarely did it on the recommended schedule. I do... |

| I think it is largely a fallacy that climate change mitigation is going to be so expensive. Fossil fuels are already very expensive making the alternatives already cost effective. All that needs to be done is to add the cost of the externalities to the worst climate change offenders and the shift to... |

| From the early reviews I think it is a very sophomoric depiction of autism. People seem to either love it or hate it. I have not seen any reviews that "diagnose" him as ASD and find that surprising based on the trailer. I don't know if I will be seeing in the a theater, but will probably s... |
