do you know anyone on the spectrum???
i know several, my ex used to/still does work with these unfortunates...
after watching and learning for many months, it has occurred to me that i myself may be a high functioning autistic...
this has not improved my chess game...
Of course the severity of autism varies enormously, my students had
moderate learning difficulties ... academically 5 years behind their peers.
On a field trip we were once refused entry to a fish n chip restaurant.
Sad what some people are like.

Some people have an inkling that they may be on the spectrum. Freaks, Geeks, and Asperger Syndrome
by Luke Jackson, a boy on the spectrum, is a good read.
Btw, I think your chess playing is brilliant. If you fancy another game and a chat send one my way. 🙂
