JP Morgan executive who jumped from bank's roof 'obsessed with couple's suicide pact' - Telegraph

I shouldn't laugh but I couldn't help it when I read this part:

"So the only universe they would wake up in would be the one they both won the lottery in.

Manic Miner springs to mind.

Interesting article here

Causes of Autism Spectrum Disorders Autism

870% increase in autism between 1990 and 2000!

The article gives lots of suggested causes, surprisingly it doesn't include different tolerance for diagnosis.

another interesting article at Autism: Children Who Can't Speak: from an ongoing series by Dr. Richard A. Kunin MD

well we always say accountants are boring - are they 'on the spectrum'

everyone laughs at coders for having no social skills - are they 'on the spectrum'

it seems as someone else has said who are we comparing these people too? where does the spectrum start

also you know some of the more outgoing people who seem to love the sound of their own voice really annoy me and yes you may find I clam up and am not very sociable - maybe this is nothing to do with Autism and more to do with the fact I think you are a prick and I do not want to socialise with you.

Is this at the root of your resentment of Autistic kids?
