Hey Shah, I hope you get to read about Gardner's concept of "Multiple Intelligences" some day.

Are you, by any chance, of Persian descent?

Okay. But I trust I know myself fairly well. This may surprise you but I can't tie a shoelace and until recently couldn't put a shirt properly on a clothing hanger.

No I am not of Persian descent. But yes I did chose my username after thee old Iranian monarch title.

Of course you know yourself quite well, and I respect that.

I know this famous, brilliant linguist who had to travel with an attendant.

I'm not so good at putting shirts on hangers, either.

We all have our strengths and weaknesses.

The moderator known as B19 is a Kiwi, too.

I'm noticing a lot of speculation about poor treatment of autistic people in Australia lately.

I didn't notice it growing up, though to be fair there were very few diagnosed students I knew of.

Prof. Tony Attwood lives and practices in the third most populous Australian city so we definitely have some advocates here.

Schools everywhere can shut down creative types but I think it more depends on the individual faculty members than the country the school is located in.

^^ I bet you like Mr. Ed, one of my favorite TV shows of all time.

Yes, I agree with what you say about the practitioners, rather than the country or the institution.
