Awesome post. The article is really scientific but provides new information, and it's refreshing to see something that's not just reprinted on a blog from the original URL. I find it interesting though, because despite being ASD I was actually put in advanced reading classes because I was reading at a "6th grade level" when I was in 3rd grade, according to Washington State in the US.
