This is a follow up to a comment I made at yesterday's meeting about Second Life becoming a means to interact with society for those with autism-spectrum disorders like Aspberger's Syndrome. There's a good point in this. "Aspies" often are of high intelligence and intensity. I've worked with one. While we quickly found ways to communicate that were constructive, the point of view issues that he had often made it difficult to share physical space, resources, and projects with us. It may have been easier for him to work with us from a distance. I wonder how many Aspies are solitary writerly persons with the high intelligence and intensity needed to finish science fiction novels? Someone could do a Master's degree on that ;-)
