Steve McGuinness
Asperger autistic information and resource site
My name is Steve McGuinness, I have an Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) as such this means I am a neuro diverse person, setting me apart somewhat from my neurotypical counterparts in that I have a pervasive developmental disorder. For those of you unaware of the term Neurotypical, it is a reference to the so called 'normal' (assuming there is such a thingl). The only thing I know of which you can make reference to 'normal' is the temperature of a room at which red wine would be served at. Many references in language can, to the person with an ASD be extremely confusing, especially when coming from the neurotypical people with which we neuro diverse folk share this strange planet we call earth.
