As part of my TV news workshop, My partner and I have decided to do a 2 minute news package about aspergers syndrome here on the UW campus.

If it's OK with the site admins, I'd like to take screen grabs of the WP home page and forum index page for possible use. None of the posts or forums would be shown on TV, just the homepage and index page.

This is an absolutely marvelous idea. You have my permission to use any screenshots of WrongPlanet. If you'd like me to say something for your film, I'd be more than happy to do so. I am honored that you value our site enough to use it as a resource for your project.

It will be a short piece and will hopefully air friday morning. My partner needs to get an interview set up tomorrow or else this whole story will fall through until next week.

As always, if people request, I can find someplace to put a video clip.

WP will indeed be featured in my little news package. There are two shots of the homepage about 2/3rd's of thw way thru. The whole package runs just under two minutes in length and will air friday morning on Oshkosh cable channel 66.

Edit: Me and my partner interviewed the counsler I see, we had some time to burn before the interview so we sat around and talked qualitatively. I've dropped a few subtle hints her way that I my self have aspergers, but I don't think she has picked up on them. At one point I asked her what her birth date was. She was more than impressed when I told her it was a Friday.
