Baronness Susan Greenfield thinks that autism is caused by the Internet. :roll:

She refuses to give any evidence of this, saying: "I point to the increase in autism and I point to internet use. That's all."

The last thing we need is another quack inventing a cause of autism. On the plus side, she's invented the Greenfieldism meme

Please post your random examples.

Here's my attempt: I point to the increase in rioting and I point to Lady Gaga. That's all.

I point my left leg in, and I point my left leg out. That is all.

I wish I hadn't been such a big Facebook user as a toddler in the Seventies... :lol:

There should be a weekly column on WP called "What's Causing Autism This Week?"
