Overwhelmed by the problems Aspergers, most of them superior people, are telling here (my english, as a dutchman, is not perfect), I strongly support eugenetics by which we can remove these stupid emotional genes of the NT's. Then we, the Aspergers, can lead our lives in the way we want.

Speaking of eugenetics, does anyone know if there is any research about the possibility of AS being a result of such experiments ?

The mechanics of removing what one section of humanity feels is a genetic inferiority from the bulk of humanity, aside from being judged totally disreputable, is an impossible job.

Oh, we'll be removed first, so saying that we'll remove these others is just silly.

Diversity, in general, is a good thing.

Last thing we want is another population bottleneck.

Does this imply people with Aspergers are without emotion?

"What is this preoccupation with our [i]ears?" - Soval, Enterprise....[/i]

Genetics - studying how genes work

Eugenics - trying to 'fix' them according to some sort of 'ideal'
