bloody nora! it says there are 553 visitors on this site, as i type. is this true? if so, why the sudden influx of squillions of people? my gast is flabbered... i am over the moon, brian. unless, of course, somebody posts one of their conspiracy theories, and says all the visitors are NTs out to persecute and be horrible to us...

pants and poo. have just read dunc's post on the connection thread thingy, and all is explained (it's something to do with slash dotting, apparently - morgvis tries to look as though she knows what that is, and even care about it).

sorry, folks - i have got you all overexcited for nothing.

worth it though, for tom's post :)

Think of all the people visiting as people who think you are interesting and want to learn more. I do not have aspergers but my six year old little boy has it and ever since I have found wrongplanet, I have felt so honored to be able to listen and and occasionally talk with others with aspergers because I think it will help me to be the best momma I can be to my sweet bubba. I want to understand his way of thinking and be able to teach him in ways he will be comfortable and happy. I almost adore my little boy more because of his AS because his awesome little fasinations and quirks make him special and unique. Anyway, I guess the point of all this is that this NT would never look in on you in a negative way but in a way of happiness that I actually get to talk to and listen to people with AS rather than a book or psychologist trying to tell me what you and my son are thinking and feeling. Thanks for letting me intrude and listen in but just remember, the more you guys talk and share your feelings, the better Brady's life will be because his mom will be patient, understanding and supportive.

Yeah, but what's in it for us?

270 people online, of which 232 are 'visitors'.

First I must say that your sincere interest in the topic
should be commended. Understanding each other is
the key to communcation. Be it, to understanding your
son, or your friends. Hmmmm? What are some of your
NT views and thoughts about what you hear? What do
you see here that give you insight about your son?

Hmmmmm?

on this site. ENJOY! and learn!
God-Bless!

I can see your point. The reality is if a few good
people can learn from the member, that is awesome!

And then there is the curious exploiter? Hmmm?
The risks are as they are and may the exploiter not
be as abundant, and the learner be true to themself
and grow. No gain without risk, hmmm? that is the
chances one must take, and this statement neither
validates, nor condemns, just to say the few good
can outway the bad!

Sincerely,
Ghosthunter

:idea: Slash dot is a computer news site and a lot of us came to read the interview with the creator of the file transfering program Bittorrent. Given the overlap between computer interests and those with Aspergers the site should get quite a few new members.
