Hi All:
I have a neurological disability called Asperger's Syndrome.
I would like to give you some information about my disability. The
reason I am posting this message about Asperger's is to help avoid any
potential misunderstandings [though it's probably too late].
I have been diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (AS). AS is a
neurological condition that causes significant impairment in social
interactions. People with AS see the world differently and this can
often bring them in conflict with conventional ways of thinking. They
have difficulty in reading body language, and interpreting subtle
cues. In my situation, I have significant difficulty with natural
conversation, reading social cues, and maintaining eye contact. This
can lead to a great deal of misunderstanding about my intent or my
behavior. For example, I may not always know what to say in social
situations, so I may look away or may not say anything. I also may not
always respond quickly when asked direct questions, but if given time
I am able express my ideas.
On Usenet, the text-equivalent of my disability is probably noticed. I
do apologize profusely, for any inconvenience it causes.
Thank you very much in advance for your understanding, cooperation,
and assistance.
Regards,
Radium

Some people have the idea that text-only interactions are easier for
people with Asperger's syndrome.
Quite a few of the regular posters around here do have trouble with
social interactions, so you will probably fit right in.

Most ungifted people ("Muggles" ;-) have strong prejudices, and to cover up
for their own lack of abilities, they usually assume that if you are gifted
in one area, it means that you have to suffer somewhere else, or at least
must be some kind of "freak" (in the original "monster" sense of the word).
Fortunately, that's wrong, and typically a higher IQ means "the flood rises
all boats".
People tend to have friends with similar intellectual level, so it's easier
to find local friends if you have an average IQ.
To go back to the original poster: In general, intelligent people see the
world differently, and this can often bring them in conflict with
conventional ways of thinking. Don't worry about that, the emphasis
of "conventional ways of thinking" is on "conventional", not on "thinking".
It's tougher in parts of the world where elitism is shunned, and easier
where it is rewarded. In other words: Don't move to Texas ;-).
