I think there are a number of problems with the idea of creating a country for people with Aspergers syndrome.

The first problem I have is where would we put it?  All of the places in the world where people can live are already occupied.  

The second point is how could you keep the island free from NT's? of an aspergian man and woman get married and have an NT child would we have  to kick it out of the country ?  

In my opinion the best chance of creating somewhere called Aspergia is to buy an island or a piece of land and over a period of years build a complex which caters for the needs of people with aspergers syndrome.  People with as would have the opportunity to spent time in an environment designed around them and that would be good for them.
You have made a very good point there.
Although I have this slight autism thing, I prefer being around NT's because they make me feel normal and happy.

I think the plan is to buy one of the half-islands of the emerging city of Dubai.

It depends on what you mean by "best"--buying an island would immediatley secure us a location, but it would be very expensive and we would be figuring things out as we went along. I'm personally more in favor of the "neuighborhood enclaves" idea--it would cost a lot less and also it's something that's been demonstrated to work successfully.
