Hello, I just thought I'd introduce myself. You can call me Al, like the song, I guess. I've lurked through the forums off and on, and I'll probably do more reading than posting, but I might post questions and other stuff on occasion.

I was diagnosed with Asperger's when I was a teenager, and I was recently re-diagnosed with Autism-Spectrum. I might be looking for people to talk to about networking and such.

I've only been on WP for a few months, but the folk seem nice.

Thanks for the welcomes, everyone!

For whatever reason, the profile editing tool won't let me put my age in my profile. It's 36, for anyone who's wondering.

I'm surprised they have turnpikes in Kansas.

I live near Union Turnpike myself. In eastern Queens, NYC.

I had trouble with that, too. I solved the problem by reading through the forum:

     Administration › WrongPlanet.net discussion

You'll learn a bunch of other things there, too.
