A while ago, I found an article on autism in some magazine and read it because the topic generally interested me...

I didn't know that by doing so, I would be able to strike a chord within myself that I have been searching for for 24 years now.

I don't have much time atm, but I will introduce myself a little better in the near future.

The only Sedaka I have ever heard of is the 1960s and 70s singer Neil Sedaka.

I suppose you could call Neil Sedaka the Justin Timberlake of his day. His early stuff was light and fluffy pop music that I never liked. His later stuff was the same style, just better.

He probably ranks in the low 900s in my top 1000 list of favorite recording artists, but I won't hold that against you.
