I was half-way through The Creation of Dr B (Bettelheim) when the light dawned. The book is basically an expose of Bruno Bettelheim and his theories of autism. The same book introduced the more credible theories of Hans Aspergers.
For about 6 months I looked for web sites by and for the Asperger community and came across this tech discussion site called Quora that just happened to have a lot of Aspergers or wanted to discuss the topic. THis may have some relation to a WIRED article on the prevalence of Aspergers in Silicon Valley and that the Quora site is based in the area.
Recently I asked a question about what practical benefit there is to an official Asperger diagnosis and got few responses. That is my current focus.
