Hi, how are you?
I found this page when I typed in nerd into wikipedia and there was a link here..

Anyways, I've heard of Asperger's before, but have been reluctant to label myself as such in the past... until now when I got this new job with this really small company and it's forced me to rethink a few things about myself... so here I am!

Anywhoo, I'll just leave it at HI for now 8)

If all it did was give you a link, the Wikipedia entry was written by an NT. If it gave you a six-page definition, a link, and a lot of obscure computer gibberish detailing how to get to that link, it was written by an Aspie.

Yah.. :roll: He always appealed to me because he lived by himself in that shed behind the money bin.. and always had that lightbulb robot following him around.
