Hi Everyone:

I have a neurological disability called Asperger's Syndrome.

hmmmm. ok, I am not sure how to respond to this:
1. you are either trying to get some sympathy attention (in which case, it
won't work and everyone will pile on you more for it)
2. you really do have it (highly unlikely as I know folks with this who are
extremely successful and make no claim to having it publically)

in any case, I know folks with AS and they are very reticent about making it
public (most people won't understand and oft times assume that the body
language, etc would still be that of someone suspicious). Most of those I
know with AS have one additional point: they don't get emotionally
involved. for them, logic is the better answer. So.... pardon my finding it
hard to believe you actually have AS.
