Just saw an Autism PSA on tv, pro cure styled.

It mentioned a site: www.Autismspeaks.org, which is rather contradictory considering that there are apparently no quotations by any autistics, though there is a small mention of Temple Gadrin. The founders statement creeped me out a bit as well. I just wish that they pointed out more of our gifts other than being able to work repeditive activies. Interesting PSA, but I would prefer that it portray a better image of people on the spectrum. The group also appears to be allied with Cure Autism Now.

The P.R might be for funding instead of otherwise.
