OT Message: My Disability
Hi Everyone:
I have a neurological disability called Asperger's Syndrome. I would like to give you some information about my disability. The reason I am posting this message about Asperger's is to help avoid any potential misunderstandings [though it's probably too late]. I have been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (AS). AS is a neurological condition that causes significant impairment in social interactions. People with AS see the world differently and this can often bring them in conflict with conventional ways of thinking. They have difficulty in reading body language, and interpreting subtle cues. In my situation, I have significant difficulty with natural conversation, reading social cues, and maintaining eye contact. This can lead to a great deal of misunderstanding about my intent or my behavior. For example, I may not always know what to say in social situations, so I may look away or may not say anything. I also may not always respond quickly when asked direct questions, but if given time I am able express my ideas. On Usenet, the text-equivalent of my disability is probably noticed. I do apologize profusely, for any inconvenience it causes. Thank you very much in advance for your understanding, cooperation, and assistance. Regards, Radium |

Do you drink a lot of diet soft drinks or have you used a lot of
artificial sweetners?? People who are heavy users of these tend to get a range of neurological problems. There was a pretty good documentary on it I downloaded, a lot of research behind it, can't remeber the name now.

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. |

Tim, you may have figured where SSI went wrong - they're now accepting self diagnoses of disabilities. Maybe we can head this thing off by requiring an MD diagnoses!!! |

Where exactly do you get the "most AS diagnosis are self-diagniosis" from? Your head? LOL :-)) That's not the way to do serious research. All the people I know with AS have an official dx by recognised clinical psychologists specialising in Autism and Asperger's. Including myself. why don't you just say you're jealous and be done with it? :-)) |

Mark Morgan's continued abuse of Amateur Radio groups
"Myal" wrote in message ... John Doe wrote: Your in the wrong NG with your garbage! you replied to garbage , and top posted at that wrote in message For whatever good it may or may not do, I've already sent a complaint to Tera News regarding Mr Morgan's abuse of the Amateur Radio newsgroups. I understand that others have, or are following suit. 186 posts to r.r.a.p on Aug 2 and 183 posts on Aug 3 are excessive by any stretch of the imagination. Nor is this unusual, for there has been many a month when KB9RQZ has made 1500 to 1600 posts in the Amateur Radio groups and has gone on record as stating that his sole purpose was to disrupt the groups with repetitive posts. It is because of him that rec.radio.amateur.moderated was formed. He has subsequently been banned from that newsgroup AND from posting to QRZ.com as well. I plan next to document his continued abuse, print it out, and mail it to Tera News located in Osceola, Indiana on the outside chance that Tera News does not read the complaints emailed to them. If he continues and Tera News fails to respond, I next plan to send a missive to his provider, Hughes Net. |
