I have written a longer piece on this point, but I'll be short. We, aspies, should put our collective minds together and file for protection under The Endangered Species Act. Those NT clowns at APA will be so baffled, stunned they will not know how to respond. Meanwhile, we have bought ourselves some time in order to save our aspie designation and pride.

Asperger's will still be included in the ICD-10, the internationally used diagnostic manual that is published by the WHO. And the ICD-10 will finally be adopted in the USA in 2013. Let's hope that spells the end for the DSM (which is basically the diagnostic manual of the US pharmaceutical industry, since all so-called experts who worked on the DSM were bought and paid for).
