That recent book regarding Dr. Hans Asperger's uncovered Nazi death-selection ties seems to have had afticles I've noted written about it.
There was a front page piece in the (San Jose) Mercury News newspaper. I meant to write about it here but didn't. Now, it appears that the current New York Review Of Books has a long article about it in their Web freebie, which I get*, though I haven't read it yet.
*-In the past I've actually subscribed to the mag, a couple of times IIRC.. Screw you, Rainbow Union (I believe) and your " you're not college material " :x! :cry:

I always knew you're a smart guy, ASS-P.

Now prove it, Sir!

I mean this straightforwardly, not sarcastically.

...The NYRB is written to a pretty " well - educated " level...I won't say that every article got to me/was totally understood by me/easy to read - And, of course, I've rather taken on the idea tith of " liser " now - The Aspie/autistic identity, and being old and crippled :cry: and trying g to get a Social Services place. Perhaps I'll never go to unj now :cry: .

Is this yet another uni thread, started with a false premise?

Along with supposedly "crying/wailing" over Rainbow Union posting in your threads and yet calling him out first thing in this latest installment?

Someone should have put the kibosh on this recycling routine a long time and umpteen similar/identical threads ago.

I figured I might as well call it out now, instead of waiting for it to get to 35 pages like most of the others.

Forget about the Aspie-autistic identity or whatever. Raise yourself above the arbitrary boundaries. Raise yourself to a higher place.
