Aspies For Freedom

Today, NYU Child Study Center gave in to the pressure from autistic self-advocates and others, and it has announced that the Ransom Notes advertisements will be withdrawn!  

Ari Ne'eman did an excellent job of coordinating the protest campaign, and everyone who sent letters and signed the petition deserves thanks too!

Great news!!

GO US!!!

Excellent result.  Are they planning to replace it with something... constructive?

Not that quick I presume.

Much better!!!

Here's a link to news coverage about it:

amen!

Yay. :3

Curebie obfuscation cannot stand against the power of Aspies in large numbers.

Or, put more simply:  WOO-HOO!

Whoo! Perhaps I should go to a rave on IMVU to celebrate.

I have no idea why on Earth you'd accuse me of being a Curbie, or wanting to be cured, because I desire to go to a social networking site.

Well you did ask if they were a sponsor of Autism Speaks, a well known curbie organization.

yay for IMVU!

Flardox, IMVU is a messenger type program, but its got a gimmick; you create a 3D avatar, a la Second Life, and use that to chat with.

also,Yoshi, add me :p Pikajedi3

Brilliant news!
