Yes i am high but unlike MrMark i don't talk about 'half-aspies' or 'semi-aspies'.
Asperger syndrome is a medical label, you cant be half-aspie or semi-aspie. Sure, i am aware it is a spectrum and some people will have more difficulties in some areas than others. But it's like saying half-pregnant or nearly-pregnant, it shows he does not have a clue.
As for Quatermass being too self-important, i really have no idea. Like i say we all have our faults, im merely talking about having understanding about asperger syndrome and related disorders. At least you (or I) know that QM knows what it is like to live with AS and does not talk about bollocks like being a 'semi-aspie'.
Ah, see there is a difference between
being an aspie, and understanding the
terminology though. The objection that
I had was merely to your questioning whether
either TM1 or Mr.Mark were actually AS.
Some, like myself, don't really care too much
about bothering with psychology. Others, who
are not on the spectrum, can be engrossed with
it.
It's not one of the criteria, AFAIK.
