Milord -
         Your first sentence is correct, so far as I know.  Your 
second sentence may be technically true . . . BUT, as is so often the 
case, this alleged "fantasy" has taught important lessons, and been 
most useful.
         There was a query from a gentle who did not know what was 
meant by "Asberger's".  That question was answered in some detail, 
and several people have given useful information about their 
experiences, and suggested ways to deal with people who exhibit 
symptoms of the syndrome.  I saw nothing that I would consider 
inaccurate, though of course there were varying degrees of generality 
and precision.
         Whether or not the visitor who was the subject of the 
original query and understood that he had been "banned" actually has 
Asberger's or not is somewhat beside the point.
         Speaking only for myself, I appreciate those who have 
contributed to the discussion.
