Have a sift: I certainly did not mean to imply that anything was solely a trait of Aspbergers. How much we 'neurotypicals' can understand a trait depends party on having some tendency to the same thing. Psych and med students notoriously fret about having every new disease they get details on, obsessing on hints of some sign. Aspies have made a home industry of spotting among famous scientists, throughout history, single traits that are higher in Aspies (or autisitics). Some folks argue from these examples that 'different' is not 'inferior'. -- Rich Ulrich
