Thanks for posting and giving me some insight into your world.

My sister thinks she may be on the spectrum, although she hasn't been diagnosed. I have one friend with Aspergers who is a concert violinist and used to give "pay what you can" mini concert/lectures in his music studio. Another person I admire who is very open about his Aspergers -- which he was diagnosed with only recently--is Eric Holthaus, a climatologist and writer for Grist whom I follow on twitter.
