Don't know about emails, but there are lots of autism researchers and practitioners (including Simon Baron-Cohen and Tony Attwood) that you can contact here:

I sent an e-mail to Tony Attwood, and he replied. I never sent one to Simon Baron-Cohen, so I don´t know about that.

I too recieved a reply from Tony Attwood. He was willing to suggest people to see in Melbourne as per my query, but I wouldn't expect much of a to-and-fro communication of your story perhaps as he is a busy professional and not working pro bono, at least I wouldn't imagine so.

I got a reply from Tony Attwood when I emailed him about some douchebag on youtube talking s**t about AS and citing Attwood out of context. Attwood even took the time to log on youtube to give the guy s**t :lol:

I might email him later on. I hope he replies. He's very knowledgeable and professional. Speaking of the video, do you have the link? I would love to watch it and add my two cents. :twisted:

I've tried to become a member on that site just now, tried on both IE and Firefox and when you click submit the completed form nothing happens. I've checked that all fields are completed. What's with it?

I don't remember who put up the video but I'm pretty sure it was removed because of numerous violations. It was put up as a hate speech video after the colorado movie shooting. I mentioned Attwoods reply here on WP but I don't remember the thread off the top of my head. I wouldn't recommend emailing him anything too long, can you imagine how many emails he must get?

*edit* Here it is I found the thread for you. The video is on the 1st post of page 3 (removed by youtube). The post quoting Attwoods reply is 2nd to last post on page 3, just scroll all the way down. https://www.wrongplanet.net/postxf204875-0-30.html
