I don't have aspergers and neither does 90% of those diagnosed with it, me thinks. They are really stretching this line thin.

Edit: By the way, I don't mean this in response to any posters. I'm talking in general. I have no reason to doubt any of you.

Where I go to school, the kids with Asperger's/autism do nothing but rock back and forth, switch lights on and off, barely talk, and take classes in a special room with toys and special ed instructors instead of mingling with the general population.
I have an autistic brother, and this is basically what he and his class do (though they do learn a ton of skills and have improved their speech beyond belief). Aspergers is seemingly getting way over-diagnosed these days.
