I think this whole AS-HFA thing is pretty cool. All of you and including me are very smart. I am not on a bunch of medication now. Think of the good things about it.

Captain_Brown there are alot of smart nice non-AS/HFA out there to. People with
AS/HFA have mayor weakness in social skills so maybe we make up for it in other
mental ways.

I think you can tell whether someone's smart by the way they talk (or type), and that this is what the OP means.

You can by the way they talk.. but not really by the way they type, to be honest.

To an extent the way they type too - ie what they say in their posts, rather than the actual way they type.

To be honest, how people communicate only reflects how they communicate.


In order to express an idea, someone must first have it. How people form ideas is how one is 'smart'. Everything else is just perception (which is itself just ideas).

When you listen to someone's voice, you recieve more information, and you can probably tell more about a person.
