I found this podcast to be helpful for learning some new general social skills.

Thoughts on this?

I'm a social moron so my opinions should be taken with a grain of salt but I think that podcast is really great.

I'm gonna make sure I listen to anything they put out.

I just read an article on that site, and I have SEVERE PROBLEMS with taking COMMUNICATION advice FROM people who use BOLD AND CAPITAL letters SEEMINGLY at random.

That's probably just the aspie in me, but... :(

It's probably quite good advice, but that writing style is just a personal pet peeve of mine, and it seems endemic to these types of sites. It sends my mental English teacher into a complete tizzy.

What I would do is get as much free stuff as I can. If it turns out to be crap, then at least you didn't pay for it.
