AS being added to the DSM IV, which came out in '94. If many of us were diagnosed with Autism or Asperger's around then, then it would make sense. I was diagnosed with HFA in '94 or '95, with another doc thinking I might have Aspergers after that. I recently got reevaluated and they say HFA now.

That's interesting. I was born in 1986, close enough. Maybe it was something in the air of the 80's. :wink: I was thinking Chernobyl air that made it's way over to Canada. Just kidding


You stole my line :)

I was 3 years before Chernobyl. So, i must be the cause of Chernobyl. :)


I was born in the late 60s, but I remember buying several Atomic Fireballs on the same day that Chernobyl started dominating the news.

But then, I bought Atomic Fireballs on many days, because I love hot cinnamon candy.
