Experts point out that unlike normal people, the severely autistic lack

You just gave anyone who was on the fence a convincing reason to never
take your posts seriously again. Congratulations.


Dittos on that, Mr. Francis.
Although the thought of ALR and Rand Simberg debating each other would
be hilarious:
RS: "You are wrong; you do not have the innate intellect to understand
the truth of my argument."
ALR: "You are autistic."
RS "No, I am not."
ALR: "Yes, you are."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
RS: "No."
ALR: "Yes."
...and so on till sunset. :-)
