I'll make SURE that when my story is successful as a book that I mention Wrong Planet, as well as provide a link wherever I can!

When I become famous I'll plug Wrong Planet, even though I'm new here! And I do intend to become famous ;).

The chances of NBC plugging any pro-ASD group in a positive light really won't be very much likely in long run when Bob Wright and Autism Speaks exists.

I wouldn't have been that one. That one's been out forever. People only go on shows to plug new books. He's got a new one coming out in two days. It's called "The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome."

When I decide to take over the world and institute common sense and logic as the new law and belief I will plug this site..

Catch 22, I want to make changes but I sure as hell don't want to be famous although I think about what it would feel like and any change I'd see would seem artificial

Alex, I've already plugged WrongPlanet on my blog. I don't know if many people have seen it, but I think this is one of the most beneficial sites for people w/aspergers, and their loved ones, that I've ever seen. It has helped my husband and I understand our two sons ENORMOUSLY! There are things we've learned here that we could have never learned under any other situation.
