I was honestly considering this until I remembered OSU stands for Ohio State University, and not Oklahoma State University. (We have an OSU in this state as well, just FYI.)

Interesting that Autism Speaks UK (separate but linked charity in England) is furious about the I am autism video and says that it warned Autism Speaks not to produce it as it was so insulting to a lot of autistic individuals.

My aspie friend is going to be in this. He was telling me about he wants to form his own team and get people from his job to join.
