Should be easy on Usenet then. There isn't any "natural conversation",
no social cues, no eye contact. And AS patients often do have very
narrow interests. But I've never seen it to the point you did about

Both my son and my wife have AS. Usually when I tell them to stop
obsessing about something during a conversation they do.
