So ... Are we allowed to post any name we want, without regard to whether or not the persons "outted" themselves or were even ever diagnosed?
How about limiting the list to only those people who have publicly "outted" themselves?
Temple Grandin
Alex Plank
Jerry Seinfeld (later retracted)
While your standard is entirely reasonable, I for one took OP's inclusion of personalities clearly not meeting it from the very start as indicating a speculative (rather than factual) context for the thread.
Edit: I also assumed that the OP meant John Elder Robison but I may very well be wrong.
