Does anybody know of any examples of identical twins where one has autism/aspergers and the other is NT?

I do. My friend has aspergers and his identical twin does not have it. They look identical, but my friend has a slight limp.

There's a kid at the school I work at who is autistic, and his twin is NT. I don't know whether they are identical or not, though.
