My grandson has (had?) Asperger's. His mother, a neatnik, did for him everything that might be messy. When he was ten years old, She dropped dead while preparing supper as he watched. His grandmother -- we weren't yet married -- rushed to help pick up the pieces, and made him pancakes for breakfast at his request. He just sat and looked at them. It turned out that he was waiting for her to cut them up. She handed him a knife and his education began. I first met him when she brought him to our house a week later for a brief stay. His first act on walking through the door was to yank my beard and announce "It's real". He had a lot of things to learn. He's a senior in college now, and has been living on his own for over three years. He's learned a lot. There's hope for Radium too if he doesn't get his pancaked cut up for him. Jerry -- Engineering is the art of making what you want from things you can get. ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
