I saw this article last night, and I thought it looked like the perfect example for an Aspie resturant/bar/club/social club/whatever.

One Romulan Ale and some Tesla fries, coming up.

...trouble is, that it's apparently geek-chique and therefore apparently the novelty factor and professed "coolness" of it will mean it's packed...an Aspie nightmare!

I don't see the bar as "geek", I see it "full of stuff that is very trendy now".

Full of French hipsters in 3, 2, 1... :lol:

Beautiful bookcase and funny details, though. Nice find.

I'm very classic, I'm yet trying to find a "Cheers" bar!

Francois Launet, who does the Unspeakable Vault (of Doom) webcomic, did a piece on the cthulu wall design. He put a link in to the wired article the other day. If you're not familar with his website, Warning: cartoon depiction of violence.

The bar is meant to be a "geek" bar, I don't know enough about France to tell you if they succeeded.

I think a bar full of aspies would be wonderful, through unlikely outside of a very dense location of aspies.

It would be cool if WrongPlanet was a place you can go and live. Not just a bar.

I wonder how much everybody would have to donate so that such a city would be built - just for autists...

Depends how big you're talking about. I have that very discussion thread on the activism forum.
