| Thanks. Well, it's my band but it's the real Jeff from the real Pearl Jam. We go way back & he is nice enough to help us out w/ a bass track once in a while when he's in town. Glad you liked it. Pass it on, we need this to go worldwide. : ) |

| Think of it this way. You tell your husband, "You know, it's really important to me that 3 times a week that you watch an hour or so of "A League of Their Own" with me. It's important to me because it's something I really like and it would really make me happy." If you told your husband that and he... |

| I have a low sex drive so I am not all that interested in sex. I can live without it and don't need it. Being disinterested or indifferent to sex is different than not liking it or being repulsed by it. Your husband seems to have a normal amount of interest in sex. What I mean is he is a married ma... |

| So every one of us individually is acting like a dick? You know this for sure? You can't just group us all like that. I never said nor meant to imply everyone with AS is the same. Likewise I hope you are not implying that any type of behavior is OK from someone just because they have AS. No matter ... |

| I think what most people mean when they say that sort of thing is, "I know this is something you might have a hard time with and I can appreciate that but you don't have to be a dick about it.", which can be true. It's not fair to take it out on the rest of the world if you have a personal issue you... |

| That doesn't sound like prejudice against autism to me, that just sounds like he didn't like the guy. It happens. Well, I don't really like A all that much either. He kind of creeps me out, but the way G was talking about him made me feel very...something, definitely because the things that he didn... |

| Some people can or could argue but do not see the point wasting their time beating their head against a brick wall. They have better or more important things to do. Do not mistake this with someone who agrees with you or feels that they are wrong. |

| Granatelli: Point taken. But still, in retrospect, it's hard to accept when adults act like children. Then again, maybe the rude man was only dealing with a diagnosis of his own. I find it easy to deal with children in general, but my profession before having children was an elementary school teach... |
