For those of you who can't comprehend humour, that was a joke, made at the expense of Aspie supremascists (spelling?).

Communication is of the utmost importance. Without it, people are unable to make the decisions which affect their lives. Orson Scott Card had 2 different types of alien beings - the ones that you can communicate with, and thus make peace, and the ones that you can't, and thus aqre doomed to be at war with. Until someone can communicate, all effort beyond the basics should be directed towards establishing communciation.

This reminds me of why aliens will probably never contact us, or at least not any time soon. Humans can't even accept members of their own species who are different, never mind an alien race.
