Hi, I strongly sympathies your situation, I have also being reading on this to educate my self on this since I read your post over the weekend. Best regards, Suminda Sirinath Salpitikorala Dharmasena P.S. Any way I wondering is it a good idea to post this in a public forum unless you are anonymous. I hope that people would be understandingly and educated about this in the future. - S.S.S.D P.P.S. I have bookmarked some resources at http://del.icio.us/sirinath/ if you already come across what I have stumbled upon. - S.S.S.D On Jul 28, 11:55 pm, Radium <gluceg...@gmail.com> wrote: > Dear All: > > I have a neurological disability called Asperger's Syndrome. > > I would like to give you some information about my disability.
