I recorded this talk and could upload it for others if someone knows of a good place to do that. One of the things impressing me the most here was Temple's mention of the great difference some actual "hands-on" experience can make ... and that is where I believe mere "education" lets many people down. It was also nice to hear her shy away from the politics of autism without being disrespectful of low-functioning people while nevertheless placing much focus on how to try to help others achieve their full potential.

How so? She seems to me to put a lot of effort into not being offensive.
