What a GREAT person!! !



Enjoy!

Oh, I wish I could watch it! I made it 2 minutes in, before I was utterly overwhelmed and nauseated from the movement, and background noise, but what a cool idea, to just record a typical conversation.

I've actually found with other shows about autism (Parenthood in particular) - that they do such a good job of portraying the autistic perspective of overwhelming noise and confusion, that ironically I'm not able to tolerate watching it.

Anyway, thanks for posting - I've always enjoyed watching her lectures on YouTube!

I enjoyed that.

The title hinted at her being naked, I was disappointed in that regard.

Thanks for sharing.
I found this a bit amusing because she reminds me so much of my dad, except my dad doesn't talk as much or use as many gestures.

She is a rather lovely woman. Slightly fogeyish though

Casual conversation is incredibly important to us as a species, yet there are no robust scientific explanations for it.
I have an ongoing interest in this because like most people in the spectrum I have problems engaging people in conversation. But my intense interests don't seem to be shared by other people on the spectrum. I guess I'll have to keep plugging away until I found some one as interested in language as I am.

she's a bit hard to understand,
i liked daktari, but startrek meeh, only the spock-caracter was intriguing,
in hindsight daktari must have inspired me to want to do something like that & also
got the place at uni for that but the world shifted to 'nope'
maybe it's not as bad a place to be, a dr dolittle, as there's already many dr dogoods around

Dr. Temple Grandin is amazing, thank you for sharing this.
