Well, maybe digital clocks, but definately not normal, analog clocks.. tick..tick..tick.. !
I went on a road trip with my biking team (yeah, scary thought :? ) and there was a clock that made noise on the wall, I asked if I could take the batteries out of it, and everyone just told me to just ignore it (this was before I was dx'd with AS) and I said that I wouldnt be able to sleep with it ticking, but... still no, so.. I spent the whole night listening to the ticking of the clock.. drove me insane!

No. I can't imagine an Aspie invented the Bow. Or even the Curtsy for that matter ;)

"Refinement? Pah! What is this "refinement" of which you speak??"

I meant bow and arrow. I believe an Aspie probably did invent archery.
