Nature Is Cruel But We Don't Have

I Strongly Recommend That Students With Autism Get Involved In Special Interest Clubs In Some Of The Areas They Naturally Excel At. Being With People Who Share Your Interests Makes Socializing Easier.

I Would Never Talk Just To Be Social. Now, To Sit Down With A Bunch Of Engineers And Talk About The Latest Concrete Forming Systems, That's Really Interesting. Talking With Animal Behaviorists Or With Someone Who Likes To Sail, That's Interesting. Information Is Interesting To Me. But Talking For The Sake Of Talking, I Find That Quite Boring.

It Is Important That Our Relationship With Farm Animals Is Reciprocal. We Owe Animals A Decent Life And A Painless Death. I Have Observed That The People Who Are Completely Out Of Touch With Nature Are The Most Afraid Of Death.

Language For Me Narrates The Pictures In My Mind. When I Work On Designing Livestock Equipment I Can Test Run That Equipment In My Head Like 3-d Virtual Reality. In Fact, When I Was In College I Used To Think That Everybody Was Able To Do That.

I Can Remember The Frustration Of Not Being Able To Talk. I Knew What I Wanted To Say, But I Could Not Get The Words Out, So I Would Just Scream.
