Theosoph, I think it is provoking Lili to make those comments, and as there has been a problem in the past and a thread had to be locked, I am asking you NOT to make such comments to Lili.
It is not her fault if the people are white, and male. All presidents of america have been the same, if she made a list of them, would it be wrong?
(rhetorical, you dont need to answer as I dont think it needs any debate).

Lili has spent a lot of time on this project and wants people to see it, hence her posting it here.

It is nothing to do with supremacy, its an interest in aspergers, history, and the people that made it.

I don't think its right to spoil someone's work, that does no harm to anyone else, and stick a spanner in the works.

I will ask her if she wants your post removed, as it was only placed here because she made it, it seems. Which does make it personal.

I hope you can see what I am saying, and put it in perspective.
Thanks for your response. I am absolutely certain that its not about supremacy, but if you think that, it does explain why you want to post and tell/warn people about it.

I made a site called http://www.celebrateautismnow.com (as a positive response against Cure Autism Now) and it was very hard to find females, and people of other races, that people have heard of. In the end I chose some people that are not well known, but have great and inspiring stories.

However, if it was just for famous people through history I would have little choice.
You just added him to the list :smile:
Could be, brief amount of info, funnily enough I was thinking about puppets earlier.
I saw a pic of Einstein with a puppet. Did anyone else like puppets as a child?
(Bit off topic)
I have seen something for Carver, but has no idea who he was until I looked, though I cannot find a source at the moment.
Really? Wow.


Edit: Just had a quick look - number 2.
Try google.com. You might be on google.au
Lili did you see the documentary I made about Einstein yet on AutTV? http://www.aspiesforfreedom.com/auttv
Famous people attract more women than an average aspie. I didn't see anything there that added or removed doubt that he was an aspie.

One simple check it if you cannot confirm someone is an aspie, can you confirm they are NT? I think for Einstein the answer is certainly no.

Did you see the Einstein video on AutTV Theosoph?

I hope I don't seem ungrateful for help in identifying more "famous aspies". For my main list I will only include names of people who have had something pretty credible published about them being AS or autistic or claiming to be autistic, such as a book, biographical details on a pretty credible looking internet reference data base, radio show recording or transcript, article in a reputable online magazine/journal, an article in a current affairs journal (Newsweek, Time etc) or a newspaper article, professional or medical journal etc.
tle party!

I hope I don't seem..difficult?..in noting that your prose style is...almost English? In fact "Cambridge English"?

Jeeez, You're spot on, Simen. My first post and I come across as transparently shallow and boastful. Why am I such a prick?


I don't think you are, really - it was just an 'ooops! Rolleyes' moment! (I have my share of those! Tongue)

I think a lot (if not most) people have fantasies about achieving greatness in some way or other; most of us never get nearly as close as you did! That must be extremely frustrating! Sad

Anyway, welcome to AFF!

Yes a warm welcome to our little aspie island. Smile

Anybody got any thoughts on Bill Oddie?

He's long struck me as potentially on the spectrum, but since I've never seen him nominated by anyone else, that may well just be a sad case of Aspie Projection.
