It's a not-well defined term, and I don't think it's especially valid. I mainly use it for shorthand to describe those who are not put into the "other" category neurologically - that is, I use it as more of a socially defined term. Talking about "a cure for autism" is like taking a sledgehammer to a glass Domino set. Want to Pull the Plug on the JRC? Follow the link.
