Michele alerted me to this wonderful video that ‘explains’ how communicative autistic people really are.
It is more than us ‘normal’ people being arrogant. It is more than just being judgemental. It is really about missing out on understanding a whole other, beautiful side of humanity.
Prepare to be humbled.

Aside: I’m told that Second Life (the online game) has provided amazing communities and opportunities for those with autism.
[In case you are wondering about the non-communicative references in the video – it is because autistic people (and Aspberger’s and others) are scientifically described as being ‘non-communicative’. How ironic.]
