Michelle, I noticed your name in the Observer today :

I think the writer got the name of your university wrong, but other than that it seemed a very useful piece. I have long thought that there is no basis for pathologizing people who have the attributes associate with autism, and in fact the label says more about the people who use it that the people it is meant to decribe. Keep up the good work!
